Clinical Trial: Robot-Assisted Versus Free-Hand CT-Guided Flexible Guidewire Localization of Pulmonary Nodules

U.S., Nov. 14 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07935018) titled 'Robot-Assisted Versus Free-Hand CT-Guided Flexible Guidewire Localization of Pulmonary Nodules' on Nov. 07.

Brief Summary: Small pulmonary nodules can be difficult to identify during thoracoscopic surgery. CT-guided flexible guidewire localization helps surgeons locate these nodules before resection. This study compares robot-assisted and conventional free-hand localization at Peking University Third Hospital. Sixty adults who require preoperative localization will be randomly assigned to one of two groups, with 30 participants in each group. Both groups will use the same type of flexible guidewire localization needle. The primary o...
