Procedures comprising guided therapeutic and diagnostic interventions by percutaneous or other access usually performed under local anaesthesia and/or sedation with fluoroscopic or computed tomography (CT) imaging used to localise the lesion/treatment site monitor the procedure and control and document the therapy (ICRP 2000b). Three-dimensional (cone beam CT) imaging using fluoroscopic equipment is also used in some interventional procedures.
