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

7. November 2026 aktualisiert von: Peking University Third Hospital

A Prospective Randomized Controlled Study of Robot-Assisted Versus Conventional Free-Hand CT-Guided Preoperative Flexible Guidewire Localization of Pulmonary Nodules

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 objective is to compare radiation exposure measured by dose-length product. The study will also assess puncture performance, localization accuracy, procedure duration, CT scan count, and procedure-related complications.

Detaillierte Beschreibung

This investigator-initiated, prospective, single-center, randomized, parallel-group study compares robot-assisted and conventional free-hand CT-guided flexible guidewire localization before thoracoscopic pulmonary nodule resection. Written informed consent is obtained before enrollment.

Participants undergo a localization difficulty assessment. A computer-generated sequence assigns participants in a 1:1 ratio within low- and high-difficulty strata using block randomization. Both groups use the same type of flexible guidewire localization needle. In the robot-assisted group, CT images are used for three-dimensional reconstruction and trajectory planning. The physician confirms the target, entry point, angle, and depth, and inserts the needle with robotic trajectory guidance. Repeat CT confirms the needle position, and the guidewire is deployed after the planned target region has been reached. Post-localization CT assesses guidewire position and complications.

The procedure is open-label. The protocol specifies blinded assessment of post-localization CT images by two independent imaging physicians. Planned and actual puncture angles and depths, and the distance between the planned target and actual needle tip, are also recorded in the robot-assisted group. Conversion to free-hand localization is permitted when required for participant safety because of robotic system failure or failed registration, and the reason is recorded.

Continuous variables are summarized as means and standard deviations or medians and interquartile ranges, as appropriate. Between-group comparisons use the independent-samples t test or Mann-Whitney U test. Categorical variables are compared using the chi-square test or Fisher exact test.

Beschreibung

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Age 18 to 80 years.
  • A pulmonary nodule identified on preoperative high-resolution chest CT, with planned thoracoscopic wedge resection or segmentectomy.
  • Maximum target nodule diameter of 20 mm or less.
  • A pure ground-glass, part-solid (mixed ground-glass), or small solid nodule.
  • A nodule considered difficult to identify by intraoperative inspection or palpation and requiring preoperative CT-guided localization.
  • Ability to tolerate percutaneous pulmonary localization and subsequent video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery.
  • Voluntary participation and written informed consent from the participant or a legally authorized representative.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Maximum target nodule diameter greater than 20 mm, or no need for preoperative localization in the investigator's judgment.
  • No safe puncture trajectory that avoids major vessels, the heart, mediastinum, severe bullous disease, or other important structures.
  • Severe pulmonary dysfunction that precludes percutaneous pulmonary puncture or thoracoscopic surgery.
  • Coagulation dysfunction or inability to interrupt anticoagulant or antiplatelet treatment according to clinical standards.
  • Clinically significant pneumothorax, pleural effusion, active infection, or another condition affecting safety assessment before localization.
  • Pregnancy or breastfeeding.
  • Inability to cooperate with positioning, breath-holding, or CT scanning.
  • Severe ipsilateral pleural adhesions, previous thoracic surgery, or previous radiotherapy considered to compromise localization safety.
  • Any other condition making participation unsuitable in the investigator's judgment.

Waffen und Interventionen

Teilnehmergruppe / Arm
Intervention / Behandlung
Experimental: Robot-Assisted CT-Guided Localization

Participants undergo robot-assisted CT-guided flexible guidewire localization before thoracoscopic resection. The uInterv C550-A system is used for CT-based reconstruction and trajectory planning. The physician confirms the target, entry point, angle, and depth and inserts the needle with robotic trajectory guidance. CT confirms satisfactory needle-tip placement before guidewire deployment. Final CT assesses guidewire position and complications. Both arms use the same type of flexible guidewire localization needle.
Gerät: Robotic puncture navigation and positioning system

The uInterv C550-A robotic puncture navigation and positioning system is used for CT-guided preoperative flexible guidewire localization of pulmonary nodules. CT images are used for three-dimensional reconstruction and trajectory planning. The physician confirms the target, skin entry point, puncture angle, and depth, and inserts the needle with robotic trajectory guidance. CT confirms satisfactory needle-tip placement before the flexible guidewire is deployed. A final CT scan assesses guidewire position and procedure-related complications. The same type of flexible guidewire localization needle is used in both groups.

Andere Namen:
  • uInterv C550-A
Aktiver Komparator: Conventional Free-Hand CT-Guided Localization

Participants undergo conventional free-hand CT-guided flexible guidewire localization before thoracoscopic resection. The physician selects the skin entry point and trajectory on CT images, inserts the localization needle under local anesthesia, and adjusts the needle as needed. CT confirms satisfactory needle-tip placement before guidewire deployment. Final CT assesses guidewire position and complications. Both arms use the same type of flexible guidewire localization needle.
Verfahren: Free-Hand CT-Guided Flexible Guidewire Localization

Percutaneous placement of a flexible guidewire localization needle using conventional manual trajectory planning and CT guidance before thoracoscopic resection. The physician inserts and adjusts the needle as needed. CT confirms satisfactory needle-tip placement before guidewire deployment, followed by final CT assessment.
