To compare the visibility of biopsy needles and localization wires using real-time compound imaging (SonoCT) and single-line ultrasound (SLU). 14-18 G biopsy needles and 5 different localization wires with and without puncture needle were placed into cadaverous muscle in 4 different angulations (0,...
