Ultrasound-guided lumbar puncture is a medical procedure that involves using ultrasound imaging to assist in the placement of a needle into the lumbar region of the spine to collect cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) or to administer medications. This technique is particularly useful for patients where traditional anatomical landmarks may be difficult to identify due to various factors such as obesity, anatomical variations, or underlying medical conditions.
