Study Summary
This trial is testing whether cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) is a viable alternative to the standard imaging guidance modality for percutaneous transthoracic needle biopsy (PTNB) in a community hospital setting.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults aged 18-90 scheduled for lung biopsy at Mather Hospital's Department of Interventional Radiology. It excludes those under 18, lacking decision-making capacity, needing general anesthesia, or high-risk patients with severe emphysema, targets near airways/central vessels, or very small nodules.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study compares two imaging techniques used during lung biopsies: the standard multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) and the experimental cone beam computed tomography (CBCT). The aim is to see if CBCT reduces the risk of a collapsed lung compared to MDCT.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include risks associated with percutaneous transthoracic needle biopsy such as pneumothorax (collapsed lung), bleeding, infection at the puncture site, and discomfort from the procedure.

Study Objectives
Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.Primary outcome measures
To determine the incidence of pneumothorax as a complication of CBCT and CT-guided percutaneous lung biopsy
Secondary outcome measures
To compare the amount of intravenous midazolam used between biopsy imaging guidance modality
Interventional procedure
To compare the the amount of intravenous fentanyl used between biopsy imaging guidance modality
