Abstract

EUS-guided implantation of fiducial markers allows for precise tumor targeting during IGRT; an established treatment modality in PC patients. Pre-loaded fiducial needles (PLN) have been developed to circumvent the technical issues inherent to traditional back-loaded (BLN) fiducial marker loading and deployment.
