Animals were anesthetized using ketamine and diazepam, intubated, and maintained with isoflurane and propofol. Access to the i.t. space was obtained using standard lumbar puncture technique at L7/S1. A catheter was threaded through the i.t. space to the cisterna magna using fluoroscopy guidance (Azurion, Philips Medical Systems). Location was guided and confirmed by a combination of cone beam CT (Xper FD20 System), fluoroscopy, and x-ray imaging after iodinated contrast injection (Omnipaque 240 mg/mL GE Healthcare). 50 mg di-siRNA in 1.5 ml was injected at a rate of 1 mL/min.
Azurion
Manufactured by Philips
Sourced in United States, Germany
The Azurion is a piece of lab equipment designed for medical imaging procedures. It is a versatile system that can be used for a variety of diagnostic and interventional procedures. The core function of the Azurion is to capture high-quality images of the patient's anatomy, which can be used by healthcare professionals to make informed decisions about treatment.

In this study, we used an X‐ray angiography system (Azurion, Philips, Netherlands) equipped with a flat‐panel detector and an under‐couch X‐ray tube. We set the source‐to‐image receptor distance to 100 cm, the height of the patient table to 90 cm, and the field of view to 20 cm. Measurements were performed in fluoroscopy and cine modes at frame rates of 7.5 f/s and 15 f/s, respectively. The tube voltage (kV), tube current (mA), and air kerma rate (AKR: mGy/min) were automatically adjusted by the X‐ray system, whose parameters are listed in Table 1 . The filters for fluoroscopy and cine modes were set to 0.4 mm Cu and 1.0 mm Al. The X‐ray tube angles included left anterior oblique 60 degrees (LAO60) and left anterior oblique 60 and caudal 40 degrees (LAO60CAU40), which are typical IR conditions in our hospital.16 , 17

Cone-Beam CT-Guided Lung Biopsy Protocol

All biopsies were performed using one of two cone-beam CT systems (Azurion; Philips Healthcare, Best, Netherlands, and Innova 4100-IQ; GE Healthcare, Chicago, IL, USA) with or without the aid of a virtual guidance software program (XperGuide version 1.65; Philips Healthcare, Bothell, WA, USA). To identify the lung target, pre-procedural cone-beam CT imaging was performed. When virtual guidance was used, the vertical alignment from the skin entry site to the target lesion was automatically established. The needle was then inserted under fluoroscopy guidance. All biopsies were performed using an 18-gauge biopsy needle (Bard Magnum; Bard, Covington, GA, USA).

All treatments were performed in patients under general anesthesia with a 6 F guiding catheter or 8 F guiding catheter with a 5 F intermediate catheter in cases of severe vessel elongation, with guidance provided by bi-plane digital subtraction angiography (DSA) (Axiom Artis, Siemens, Erlangen, Germany; Azurion, Philips, Eindhoven). The standard approach included femoral access using short sheaths, predominantly on the right side. All FDs were deployed via Trevo Pro 18, Excelsior XT27 (Stryker Neurovascular, Kalamazoo, MI, United States), Headway 21 (MicroVention Terumo, Tokyo, Japan) or Prowler Select Plus (Cerenovus, Johnson & Johnson, New Brunswick, NJ, United States) microcatheters.
All patients undergoing FD procedures received intravenous administration of 3,000–5,000 IU heparin. Heparinized irrigation solutions were used in all catheters (5,000 IU unfractionated heparin/L). FD implantation was performed by the two most experienced interventionalists at each center.

All ICA images were evaluated by Philips Azurion with ClarityIQ (Philips Healthcare). Iodixanol 320 (GE Healthcare) was administered as an iodinated contrast agent.
About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
