PURPOSE: To investigate the effect on procedure time and patient radiation indices of replacing helical acquisitions for needle guidance during thoracic needle biopsy (TNB) with intermittent single-rotation axial acquisitions.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: This retrospective intervention study included 215 consecutive TNBs performed by a single operator from 2014 to 2018. Characteristics of patients, lesions, and procedures were compared between TNBs guided only by helical acquisitions initiated in the control room (helical group, n=141) and TNBs guided in part by intermittent single-rotation axial computed tomography controlled by foot pedal (single-rotation group, n=74). Procedure time and patient radiation indices were primary outcomes, complications, and radiologist radiation dose were secondary outcomes.
RESULTS: Patient, lesion, and procedural characteristics did not differ between helical and single-rotation groups. Use of single-rotation axial acquisitions decreased procedure time by 10.5 minutes (95% confidence interval [CI]: 8.2-12.8 min) or 27% (95% CI: 22%-32%; P<0.001). Patient dose in cumulative volume computed tomography dose index decreased by 23% (95% CI: 12%-33%) or 8 mGy (95% CI: 4.3-31.6 mGy; P=0.01). Dose-length product decreased by 50% (95% CI: 40%-60%) or 270 mGy cm (95% CI: 195-345 mGy cm; P<0.001). No operator radiation exposure was detected. Rate of diagnostic result, pneumothorax, hemoptysis, and hemorrhage did not differ between groups.
CONCLUSIONS: Replacing helical acquisitions with intermittent single-rotation axial acquisitions significantly decreases TNB procedure time and patient radiation indices without adversely affecting diagnostic rate, procedural complications, or operator radiation dose.
