Abstract

Here, we overview an optical coherence tomography image-guided needle puncture based on recent results, which can help operators more accurately indicate the depth position of the puncture needle into the body, reduce subjective judgment errors, and assist the physician in operating a smoother procedure, and increase the success rate of the operation. Artificial intelligence aided image interpretation can further provide an automatic diagnosis in the future.
