  • Abstract
    A range of minimally invasive interventions is still expanding because the performed procedures may often be more potent and precise than the classical operations. Effectiveness and precision can especially be improved when some combined methods of imaging are used. Videoendoscopy imaging and X-ray imaging are two complementary methods applied during the intervention presented in the paper. These methods facilitate a significant increase in diagnostics and treatment comfort. Interdisciplinary issues of combined medical imaging are presented using some examples of a modern approach to imaging of biliary stenting. The selected examples of effects obtained during interventions assisted by combined imaging of operation site are presented. They have to allow the operator to have great control over the appearance of desirable effects as well as undesirable complications in order to work comfortably and safe.
