Ablation-first versus biopsy-first strategy in computed tomography (CT)-guided biopsy-cryoablation for pulmonary nodules: a retrospective cohort study
Listen to this summary
This study aimed to compare the safety and diagnostic performance of ablation-first versus biopsy-first strategies in CT-guided biopsy-cryoablation for pulmonary nodules. The findings indicated that while both approaches had similar positive biopsy rates, the ablation-first strategy resulted in significantly lower rates of procedure-related complications and intraoperative bleeding. Thus, the authors suggest that the ablation-first approach may be a safer option for patients undergoing this procedure.
