    IntroductionThe universal probe is a tool devised to allow navigation-directed biopsies and drainage procedures to be performed in a simple manner using a single hardware and software.AimTo assess the efficacy and safety of the universal probe.ResultsWe used the universal probe in a total of 17 patients for 10 biopsies and 8 drainage procedures. We were able to achieve our set objectives in all 18 procedures. We did not encounter any complications using this device.ConclusionThe universal probe enabled a variety of navigation-based procedures to be carried out using only a single software and hardware.Georg Thieme Verlag KG Stuttgart · New York.
