CT-Free Electromagnetic Navigation Percutaneous Localization for Pulmonary Nodules Undergoing Sublobar Resection

Pulmonary nodules, particularly small and non-palpable nodules, present challenges for accurate localization during sublobar lung resection. This multicenter observational cohort study evaluated the feasibility, accuracy, and safety of CT-Free electromagnetic navigation percutaneous localization for pulmonary nodules requiring sublobar resection. Patients who underwent CT-Free electromagnetic navigation localization were compared with patients who received conventional CT-guided localization. The primary outcome was localization success rate, defined as the distance between the localization marker and the pulmonary nodule center being within 10 mm. Secondary outcomes included localization procedure time, conversion rate to other localization methods, surgical success rate, perioperative complications, postoperative hospitalization duration, and medical resource utilization.

Prospective Phase II Clinical Study of Stereotactic Body Proton Therapy (SBPT) for Lung Cancer

This study included patients with early-stage lung cancer cT1-3N0M0, stage IA-IIB (American Joint Committee on Cancer eighth edition staging, AJCC 8th ) who were inoperable or refused surgery. They were divided into peripheral type and central type according to the tumor location and received radical Stereotactic Body Proton Therapy (SBPT) for Early-Stage Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer. The prescribed dose for patients with peripheral lung cancer is 48-60Gray(Gy) (Relative Biological Effectiveness, RBE)/4-6 fractions, and for patients with central lung cancer, the prescribed dose is 50-70Gy(RBE)/10-15 fractions. After treatment, follow-up visits will be conducted to observe short-term and long-term efficacy, adverse reactions and patient quality of life.
