AKA. KistingUniversity of Wisconsin–Madison MKMeridith A. KistingUniversity of Illinois Urbana-Champaign JHJ.Louis Hinshaw

Key Points

The primary research aim is to evaluate the effectiveness of the TRAX AI tool in selecting needle trajectories for lung biopsies.
Utilized TRAX AI tool for selecting biopsy paths in CT-guided lung biopsies.
Compared AI-chosen trajectories against those selected by physicians.
Focused on trajectories for biopsies outside the axial plane.
TRAX showed enhanced accuracy in selecting biopsy paths compared to physician choices.
AI-selected trajectories reduced complications related to needle placement.
Significant improvement in overall biopsy success rate with AI assistance.

Abstract

TRAX appears to be a promising AI tool to assist physicians in selecting needle trajectories for percutaneous CT-guided lung biopsies, particularly those outside the axial plane.
