Electromagnetic Tracking and Optical Molecular Imaging Guidance for Liver Biopsy and Point-of-Care Tissue Assessment in Phantom and Woodchuck Hepatocellular Carcinoma.

Biopsy guidance with fused CT imaging, EM tracking, and ICG tracking with an OMI stylet to detect HCC is feasible. Immediate assessment of ICG uptake in biopsy cores with the POC OMI system is feasible and correlates with the presence of HCC in the tissue.
