Feasibility study of a novel wireless localization technique using radiofrequency identification markers for small and deeply located lung lesions.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

To evaluate the safety and efficacy of a novel wireless localization technique that uses radiofrequency identification markers for small and deep lung lesions.

Methods

Preliminary use of the device was retrospectively evaluated in 2 Japanese centers. Under general anesthesia, a marker was placed as close as possible to the tumor via computed tomography-guided bronchoscopy in a hybrid operation theater. Surgeons located the marker without lung palpation using a detection probe the tone of which changed to indicate the marker-probe distance. Efficacy was defined as functional marker placement (bronchoscopy time and marker position) and deep margin distance.

Results

Twelve markers were placed for 11 lesions (mean size, 6.8 ± 2.7 mm) located at a mean depth from the pleura of 11.4 ± 8.4 mm (range = 0-26.0 mm). Of 12 markers, 7 markers (58.3%) were placed within 10 mm from the lesion in 25.5 ± 14.4 minutes. For the 11 wedge resections, markers were placed at a mean distance of 6.7 mm (range, 0-13.0 mm) from the lesion and a mean distance of 14.4 mm (range, 3.0-42.0 mm) from the pleura. All markers were recovered without complications, and all tumors were resected with negative margins. For 5 lesions >10 mm deep to the pleura (mean depth, 18.9 ± 5.5 mm; range, 11.0-26.0 mm), the median depth of the surgical margin was 11.6 ± 2.1 mm (range, 9.0-14.0 mm).

Conclusions

Radiofrequency identification marking was safe and precisely localized small lung lesions, including their depth.

Project description:BackgroundBreast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer and the leading cause of cancer death in women. Approximately 50% of breast cancers are discovered at an early stage in patients for whom conservative surgery is indicated. Intraoperative localization of non-palpable breast lesions is generally accomplished using a hook wire to mark the area of concern under ultrasound or stereotactic localization. But this technique has several drawbacks (painful, stressful…). We propose the use of a wire-free breast lesion system using miniature radiofrequency identification (RFID) tags. This technique could improve patient comfort and surgical comfort for surgeons. We therefore propose a study to assess the interest of introducing the RFID localization technique at the Jean PERRIN comprehensive cancer center.MethodsThis is a single-center prospective trial designed to assess the interest in introducing the RFID localization technique at the Jean Perrin center. It aims to show the superiority of the RFID technique in terms of patient tolerance compared to the gold-standard (hook wire). A sequential inclusion in time will be performed: 20 inclusions in the gold-standard group, then 20 patients in the RFID group before repeating the inclusion scheme. Any patient requiring preoperative localization will receive a senology consultation. The RFID tag will be placed during this consultation. The hook wire localization will be done the day before the surgery. Patients will fill out a Hospital Anxiety and Depression scale (HAD) questionnaire at the time of inclusion. They will then fill out a satisfaction questionnaire in 2 steps: during the placement of the device (RFID tag or hook wire) or during the postoperative consultation at 1 month. Radiologists and surgeons will fill out a questionnaire to evaluate the localization technique, respectively after the localization and surgery procedures.DiscussionThe RFID study is the first study in France which specifically assesses the interest of the RFID localization in terms of patients comfort. Patient comfort is one of the key elements to take into consideration when managing patients in oncology and new technologies such as RFID tags could improve it.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov ID; NCT04750889 registered on February 11, 2021.

Project description:OBJECTIVES:To compare magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) parameters of small, deeply located non-malignant and malignant soft-tissue tumors (STTs). METHODS:Between May 2011 and December 2017, 95 MRIs in 95 patients with pathologically proven STTs of small size (<5 cm) and deep location (66 non-malignant and 29 malignant) were identified. For qualitative parameters, consensus reading was performed by three radiologists for presence of necrosis, infiltration, lobulation, and the tail sign. Apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) was analyzed by two other radiologists independently. Univariable and multivariable analyses were performed to determine the diagnostic performances of MRI parameters in differentiating non-malignancy and malignancy, and for non-myxoid, non-hemosiderin STTs and myxoid STTs as subgroups. Interobserver agreement for ADC measurement was calculated with the intraclass correlation coefficient. RESULTS:Interobserver agreement on ADC measurement was almost perfect. On univariable analysis, the malignant group showed a significantly larger size, lower ADC, and higher incidence of all qualitative MRI parameters for all STTs. Size (p = 0.012, odds ratio [OR] 2.57), ADC (p = 0.041, OR 3.85), and the tail sign (p = 0.009, OR 6.47) were independently significant on multivariable analysis. For non-myxoid, non-hemosiderin STTs, age, size, ADC, frequency of infiltration, lobulation, and the tail sign showed significant differences between non-malignancy and malignancy on univariable analysis. Only ADC (p = 0.032, OR 142.86) retained its independence on multivariable analysis. For myxoid STTs, only size and tail sign were significant on univariable analysis without independent significance. CONCLUSIONS:Size, ADC, and incidence of qualitative MRI parameters were significantly different between small, deeply located non-malignant and malignant STTs. Only ADC was independently significant for both overall analysis and the non-myxoid, non-hemosiderin subgroup.
