Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of three-dimensional printed navigational template in the clinical application of small peripheral lung nodule localization.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Localization of small lung nodule is challenging due to the difficulty of nodule recognition during VATS. A three-dimensional printed navigational template was designed to aid percutaneous lung nodule localization, and its feasibility has been confirmed in previous study. The trial was conducted to confirm the non-inferiority of template-guided method to conventional CT-guided method in terms of localization accuracy.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

CT-guided localization

This group of participants received conventional CT-guided lung nodule localization.

Group Type OTHER

CT-guided localization

Intervention Type OTHER

Percutaneous lung nodule localization was conducted under the real-time guidance of CT scan. This is the conventional method of transthoracic lung nodule localization.

template-guided localization

Three-dimensional printed template was customized based on participant's computed tomography information. Participants received template-guided lung nodule localization.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

template-guided localization

Intervention Type DEVICE

Based on CT data, digital model of the navigational template was created using CAD software and imported to 3D printer. The navigational template serves as a guider to the localizer in lung nodule localization.
