Noninvasive verification of nasogastric tube placement using a magnet-tracking system: a pilot study in healthy subjects.
TL;DR: Magnet tracking allows accurate, real-time, 3-dimensional localization of an NG tube with respect to anatomic landmarks and may be a useful tool for bedside placement of nasogastric and enteral feeding tubes.
