The application value of computed tomography in combination with intraoperative noninvasive percutaneous ultrasonic localisation of subpleural pulmonary nodules/ground-glass opacity in uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopy

CONCLUSIONS: Preoperative CT combined with intraoperative percutaneous real-time noninvasive ultrasonic localisation can accurately locate subpleural pulmonary nodules, with a high degree of safety and good tolerance in patients who are suitable for U-VATS.PMID:34136035 | PMC:PMC8193756 | DOI:10.5114/wiitm.2020.101238
