There are numerous procedures where the imaging component is considered a supplemental or secondary technique to help accomplish the primary goal. The pattern is:

Procedure using guidance

  • FSN: Y (procedure) using (diagnostic <diagnostic imaging modality modality> guidance ) (procedure)
  • PT:  (Diagnostic <Diagnostic imaging modality) modality> guided Y (procedure)
  • SYN: Y (procedure) using (diagnostic <diagnostic imaging modality modality> guidance)

For example, 

    • Concept
      t407971000119109 |Percutaneous needle biopsy of liver using computed tomography guidance (procedure)|
      • FSN:  Percutaneous needle biopsy of liver using computed tomography guidance (procedure)
      • PT:  CT guided biopsy of liver
      • SYN:  Percutaneous needle biopsy of liver using computed tomography guidance


Computed tomography guided procedure

  • FSN: Y using computed tomography guidance (procedure) 
  • PT:  CT guided Y
  • SYN: Y using computed tomography guidance

...

    • Concept
      t431864000 |Injection using computed tomography guidance (procedure)|
      • FSN:  Injection using computed tomography guidance (procedure)
      • PT:  CT guided injection
      • SYN:  Injection using computed tomography guidance

Fluoroscopy guided procedure

  • FSN: Y using fluoroscopic guidance (procedure) 
  • PT:  Fluoroscopy guided Y
  • SYN: Y using fluoroscopic guidance

...

Note
titleFluoroscopic guidance
The term fluoroscopic Y is interpreted as Y using fluoroscopic guidance (procedure).  Procedures such as
Concept
t432540009 |Biopsy of wrist using fluoroscopic guidance (procedure)|
are subtypes of Fluoroscopy (procedure).

(See also Fluoroscopy and Fluoroscopic Imagingpage)

Magnetic resonance imaging guided procedure

  • FSN:  Y using magnetic resonance imaging guidance (procedure) 
  • PT:  MRI guided Y (procedure)
  • SYN:  Y using magnetic resonance imaging guidance

...

    • Concept
      t433008009 |Core needle biopsy of breast using magnetic resonance imaging guidance (procedure)|
      • FSN:  Core needle biopsy of breast using magnetic resonance imaging guidance (procedure)
      • PT:  MRI guided core needle biopsy of breast
      • SYN:  Core needle biopsy of breast using magnetic resonance imaging guidance

Ultrasonography guided procedure

  • FSN:  Y using ultrasonographic guidance (procedure) 
  • PT:  Ultrasonography guided Y
  • SYN:  Y using ultrasonographic guidance
  • SYN:  Y using ultrasound guidance

...

    • Concept
      t431811004 |Biopsy of wrist using ultrasonographic guidance (procedure)|
      • FSN:  Biopsy of wrist using ultrasonographic guidance (procedure)
      • PT:  Ultrasonography guided biopsy of wrist
      • SYN:  Biopsy of wrist using ultrasonographic guidance
      • SYN:  Biopsy of wrist using ultrasound guidance

Plain X-ray guided procedure

  • FSN:  Y using plain X-ray guidance (procedure) 
  • PT:  Plain X-ray guided Y
  • SYN:  Y using plain X-ray guidance

For example, 

    • Concept
      t718674009 |Injection of steroid using X-ray guidance (procedure)|
      • FSN:  Injection of steroid using plain X-ray guidance (procedure)
      • PT:  X Plain X-ray guided steroid injection
      • SYN:  Injection Injection of steroid using plain X-ray guidance
