A bone marrow biopsy and aspiration is a procedure where a small amount of bone marrow is removed for testing. It involves inserting a needle into a bone, typically the hip, to collect a sample. It can help diagnose various diseases and monitor treatment effectiveness.

The insertion of a tunneled central venous tube is a procedure where a thin, flexible tube is placed into a large vein, usually in the neck or chest. This tube allows healthcare providers to give medications, fluids, or nutrients directly into your bloodstream over a longer period.

A central venous tube with port is a small, flexible tube inserted into a large vein, usually in the chest. It allows for easy administration of medication, fluids, or blood products over a long period. A port is attached under the skin for easy access. It's safe for individuals aged 5 and above.

Fluoroscopic guidance for needle placement is a medical procedure that uses a special X-ray technology to help accurately place a needle in the body. It's often used in biopsies, injections or other treatments to ensure precision and safety.

A lower back spinal tap, guided by imaging, is a procedure to collect spinal fluid for testing. A needle is carefully inserted into the lower back to draw out fluid. This can help diagnose various conditions. It's performed under local anesthesia to minimize discomfort.

Ultrasonic guidance for needle placement is a technique where sound waves create images that help accurately position the needle during procedures. This method ensures precision, minimizes discomfort, and increases safety.

A fine needle aspiration biopsy with ultrasound guidance is a procedure where a thin needle is used to collect cells from a growth. Ultrasound helps accurately locate the growth. If there's more than one growth, each one is biopsied separately.

This procedure involves replacing an existing kidney drainage tube. Using imaging technology, a radiologist precisely guides the process to ensure accuracy. This helps drain excess fluid from kidneys, improving their function and your comfort.

A tunneled central venous tube removal is a procedure to take out a long, thin tube that was previously placed in a large vein in your body. This tube helps deliver medication or nutrition. The removal is usually quick and done under local anesthesia.

This procedure involves injecting a special dye, called contrast, into your lower spine. The contrast helps create clearer images of your spinal canal during imaging tests. It aids in identifying any abnormalities or issues more effectively.

Fluoroscopic guidance for spine or back muscle injection is a procedure where a special X-ray technology, called fluoroscopy, is used to help accurately place the needle for an injection in the spine or back muscles. This ensures precise delivery of medication to the targeted area.

This procedure involves injecting a contrast agent into your shoulder joint. The contrast helps highlight the joint on an imaging scan, giving a clearer picture of its condition. It can help identify any abnormalities or injuries. It's generally safe with minimal discomfort.
