Tests Details :
CT / USG – Guided Aspiration is a diagnostic and therapeutic procedure used to remove fluid, pus, or other material from a specific area of the body using imaging guidance. The procedure is performed under Computed Tomography (CT) or Ultrasound (USG) to ensure precise needle placement into the targeted site.
This technique is commonly used for draining abscesses, cysts, or fluid collections and may also be used to collect samples for laboratory analysis. Imaging guidance enhances accuracy, minimizes complications, and ensures effective removal of the targeted material.
The procedure is typically performed under local anesthesia and is minimally invasive. It may provide immediate relief from symptoms such as pain, swelling, or pressure caused by fluid accumulation.
CT/USG Guided Aspiration is widely used in managing conditions affecting organs such as the liver, lungs, abdomen, soft tissues, or joints.
The purpose of CT/USG Guided Aspiration is to remove or sample fluid from a specific area.

- Drain abscesses or infected fluid collections
