HYBRID SURGICAL AND RADIOLOGICAL PROCEDURES: COMPREHENSIVE SAFETY AND EFFICACY ASSESSMENT OF COMBINED INTERVENTIONS UNDER ULTRASOUND, CT, AND FLUOROSCOPY GUIDANCE

Аннотация

The convergence of surgery and interventional radiology has given rise to hybrid approaches that  merge  operative  precision  with  advanced  imaging  modalities.  This  integration—combining ultrasound,  computed  tomography  (CT),  and  fluoroscopy—represents  a  technological  evolution toward safer and more accurate minimally invasive interventions.
The  present  study  provides  a  comprehensive  evaluation  of  the  safety  profile,  technical feasibility,  and  clinical  outcomes  of  hybrid  surgical-radiological  procedures  performed  under multimodal image guidance. Seventy-four patients undergoing vascular, hepatobiliary, orthopedic, and oncologic interventions were prospectively observed between 2023 and 2025 at the Samarkand State Medical University Clinical Center.
The results indicate that hybrid procedures led to a 35–40% reduction in mean radiation exposure, a 10–15% decrease in procedural time, and a 57% relative reduction in major intraoperative complications. The integration of ultrasound as a real-time, radiation-free modality during access phases played a crucial role in lowering cumulative radiation doses.
These findings confirm that hybrid operating environments—where radiology and surgery converge—enable  higher  procedural  safety,  enhance  spatial  control,  and  set  the  foundation  for precision-guided, patient-centered interventions in modern medicine.
