Use of a 3D-Printed Abdominal Compression Device to Facilitate CT Fluoroscopy-Guided Percutaneous Interventions.

OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this article is to describe a handheld external compression device used to facilitate CT fluoroscopy-guided percutaneous interventions in the abdomen.


CONCLUSION
The device was designed with computer-aided design software to modify an existing gastrointestinal fluoroscopy compression device and was constructed by 3D printing. This abdominal compression device facilitates access to interventional targets, and its use minimizes radiation exposure of radiologists. Twenty-one procedures, including biopsies, drainage procedures, and an ablation, were performed with the device. Radiation dosimetry data were collected during two procedures.
