About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Lung Neoplasm focused on measuring Printing, Three-dimensional

Eligibility Criteria

19 Years - 80 Years (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Aged from 19 to 80 years
  2. lesions located in peripheral lung tissue which can be removed by wedge resection
  3. The maximum diameter of the lesion is no more than 20 mm.
  4. Research assistant consulted with the patient's surgeon to confirm the necessity of lung nodule localization
  5. Informed consent was signed voluntarily.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. nodule located in the scapula region.
  2. there were two or more lung nodules needed to be localized.

Sites / Locations

Experimental

Arm Label

CT-guided localization

template-guided localization

Arm Description

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

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

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Accuracy of Lung Nodule Localization
Localization accuracy was defined by the localizer deviation between the hookwire and the center of the target nodule. (The deviation was measured using CAD software after downloading the CT images from the Picture Archiving and Communication Systems.)

Secondary Outcome Measures

Procedural Duration of the Nodule Localization
Procedural duration was derived from CT scan parameters, which was calculated as the time length between the initial and final scan.
Radiation Dose
Radiation dosage was read on the monitor screen of CT scanner and converted to effective dosage.
Complication Rate
Pnuemothorax related to lung nodule localization

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
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
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.

Arm Description
Three-dimensional printed template was customized based on participant's computed tomography information. Participants received template-guided lung nodule localization.
Intervention Type
Device
Intervention Name(s)
template-guided localization
Intervention Description
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.
Intervention Type
Other
Intervention Name(s)
CT-guided localization
Intervention Description
Percutaneous lung nodule localization was conducted under the real-time guidance of CT scan. This is the conventional method of transthoracic lung nodule localization.
