NCT04056923

Brief Summary

Implementation of lung cancer screening using low-dose computed tomography has increased the rate of detection of small peripheral pulmonary nodules. However, it is hard to localize these nodules by palpation because of their small volume and long distance to the nearest pleural surface. To further clarify the confounding factors, we developed our own 3D printing localization procedure. In contrast to traditional CT-G percutaneous puncture localization, our procedure was performed in the operating room without CT scan evaluation.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Localization distance

    The distance of the two stain points from the tumor. The investigators use a sterile, standard ruler to measure the distance. Based on our previous experience with CT-G localization, a deviation of less than 2 cm was considered a successful localization.
