Summary

This study reviewed data from 1072 patients who had a CT-guided procedure to mark lung nodules before surgery. Researchers compared a special hookwire technique (PDTH) to dye-only marking to see if it increased the risk of a collapsed lung (pneumothorax). The goal was to understand the safety of this technique and identify risk factors.
