Enhanced Positioning Strategies to Reduce Pneumothorax in CT-Guided Lung Biopsies

Enhanced Positioning Strategies to Reduce Pneumothorax in CT-Guided Lung Biopsies

Background/Objectives: This study aimed to investigate pneumothorax risk, focusing on the gravitational effect of pleural pressure caused by specific patient positioning. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 144 percutaneous CT-guided lung biopsies performed between January 2019 and December 2023. P...
