AB - · Radiologically guided percutaneous needle biopsy is a safe and well tolerated procedure, which can often be performed as an outpatient procedure. · Transthoracic needle biopsy is most effective in the diagnosis of malignancy, but has limitations since the likelihood of obtaining a specific benign diagnosis is often low. · Percutaneous image-guided aspiration and drainage are fast becoming the ″first line″ treatments for the management of pleural and mediastinal collections; percutaneous drainage of lung abscess is an acceptable alternative to surgery where medical therapy has failed. · Tracheobronchial stenting is a valuable (often palliative) technique in the management of airway narrowing.
