Abstract:
Objective To study the technique and clinical significance of percutaneous thoracic biopsy using CT fluroscopic guidance.Methods 76 cases including 68 lung nodules, 5 mediastinal masses and 3 pleural lesions were undergone this procedure. Results The successful rate of the procedure was 100% for all the 76 cases. The diagnostic accuracies were 97.9% for malignant lesions (47/48), 92.3% for benign lesions (26/28), with a total accuracy of 96.1%. The complication of pneumothorax was presented in 24 cases of the total members. Conclusions ① The technique of CT fluoroscopy prosseses the virtue of x-ray fluoroscopy and CT. ② Because of the diagnostic high accuracy for malignant and benign lesions, percutaneous biopsy under CT fluoroscopic guidance have important clinical significance for diagnosis of thoracic lesions.
