Abstract: BACKGROUND Small pulmonary nodules (SPNs) often cannot be accurately located during video-assisted thoracoscopic (VATS) resection, and preoperative computed tomography (CT)-guided localization performed using hook wire placement can be helpful. However, recent studies revealed a trend… read more here.

Abstract: The resection of nodules by thoracoscopic surgery is difficult because the nodules may be hard to identify. Preoperative localization of pulmonary nodules is widely used in the clinic. In this study, we retrospectively compared CT-guided… read more here.
