Preoperative computed tomography (CT)-guided localization of small pulmonary nodules (SPNs) is the major approach for accurate intraoperative visualization in video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS). However, this interventional procedure has certain risks and may challenge to less experienced junior doctors. This study aims to evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of robotic-assisted CT-guided preoperative pulmonary nodules localization with the modified hook-wire needles before VATS.
