Overview
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine feasibility and safety of using an augmented reality system in patients undergoing MRI-Guided needle procedures.
Detailed Description
This pilot clinical study is designed to evaluate the feasibility of using a needle guidance system during MRI-guided procedures in up to 12 patients. The MRI-compatible needle guidance system was developed under an NIH funded SBIR Phase II grant. This system has been evaluated by our Interventional Radiology team in phantom, volunteer, and cadaver studies which showed potential benefit of use in patients. Inclusion of the needle guidance system will not change the standard of care or substantively affect procedural technique as currently performed. This system provides the operator with an augmented reality (AR) display to better visualize the needle entry point and trajectory as it is inserted toward the target. This additional information could improve needle placement accuracy and shorten procedural time.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Safety of using the augmented reality needle guidance system will be evaluated through assessment of procedure related adverse events that occur within 7 days of the procedure.
Time Frame: 7 days
Feasibility is measured by successful completion of greater than 80% of cases using the augmented reality needle guidance system.
Time Frame: 1 day
Secondary Outcomes
- Procedure time(1 day)
- Number of MRI scans(1 day)
- Clinical impressions of the system use and utility(1 Day)
