    The study assessed a fine-needle-assisted, two-step puncture technique for CT-guided percutaneous interventions in challenging locations.

  • 2

    The fine-needle-assisted technique showed a 100% success rate in initial needle placement, compared to one failure in the conventional group.

  • 3

    Fewer repositioning attempts were required in the fine-needle-assisted group, averaging 0.9 attempts versus 2.2 in the conventional approach.

  • 4

    Puncture times were shorter in the fine-needle-assisted group, averaging 12.05 minutes compared to 14.95 minutes for the conventional method.

  • 5

    No major complications occurred in either group, indicating the fine-needle-assisted technique is safe and effective for challenging procedures.
