CT-guided Lung Biopsy Risk Optimization Method

CT-guided Lung Biopsy Risk Optimization Method - Effect of Fluid Application in the Pleural Cavity and the Gravitational Effect of Pleural Pressure

Sponsor

Insel Gruppe AG, University Hospital Bern

Enrollment

198 participants

Start Date

Sep 29, 2025

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Pneumothorax Biopsy, Needle Risk Factors Radiology, Interventional

Summary

The purpose of this randomized controlled study is to evaluate the extent to which injection of a small amount of fluid in the pleural cavity at the biopsy site may reduce the risk of pneumothoraces, in addition to patient positioning to allow biopsy in gravity-dependent areas of the lung.
