The Value of Computed Tomography-Guided Percutaneous Lung Biopsy Combined With Rapid On-Site Evaluation in Diagnosis of Peripheral Pulmonary Nodules.

ABSTRACT: Objective: To investigate the value of computed tomography-guided percutaneous lung biopsy (CT-PLB) combined with rapid on-site evaluation (ROSE) in the diagnosis of peripheral pulmonary lesions (PPLs). Methods: A total of 108 patients who diagnosed with PPLs by chest CT examination were prospectively collected and randomly divided into ROSE group (n = 56) and No-ROSE group (n = 52). Both groups received CT-PLB and pathological examination. The smear submitted for ROSE was stained using Diff Quik dye. The accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV), number of punctures, puncture time and incidence of complications were compared between the two groups. Results: The accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, PPV, and NPV
