OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety and feasibility of percutaneous radiologic gastrostomy with endoscopic push-type gastrostomy tubes using CT and fluoroscopic guidance. CONCLUSIONS Percutaneous radiologic gastrostomy using CT and fluoroscopic guidance with push-type tubes is a safe and effective means of gastric feeding that has few complications and offers an alternative to introducer-placed gastrostomy tubes.

D015641 Radiography, Interventional Diagnostic and therapeutic procedures that are invasive or surgical in nature, and require the expertise of a specially trained radiologist. In general, they are more invasive than diagnostic imaging but less invasive than major surgery. They often involve catheterization, fluoroscopy, or computed tomography. Some examples include percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography, percutaneous transthoracic biopsy, balloon angioplasty, and arterial embolization. Interventional Radiography
