This prospective, single-center, non-inferiority, randomized controlled clinical trial aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a percutaneous interventional surgical control system in performing percutaneous needle biopsy of pulmonary nodules, compared with conventional manual biopsy. The study will be conducted at Shanghai Chest Hospital and plans to enroll 158 patients who meet the indications for percutaneous transthoracic needle biopsy (PTNB) and have no contraindications. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: the experimental group will undergo PTNB assisted by the percutaneous interventional surgical control system, while the control group will receive traditional manual PTNB. The primary endpoint is diagnostic yield; secondary endpoints include technical success rate, number of needle adjustments, puncture time, total procedure time, radiation dose, and complication rates.

Inclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria
Patients undergo percutaneous needle biopsy of pulmonary nodules with assistance from a percutaneous interventional surgical control system. The system performs automatically needle positioning and puncture.
Other names: Robotic assisted PTNB
Patients receive traditional manual percutaneous needle biopsy of pulmonary nodules under CT guidance, operated by experienced interventional physicians.
Other names: Conventional PTNB
Time frame: Up to 6 months after biopsy
Malignant lesions and specific benign lesions (e.g., fungal infections, tuberculosis, granulomas, etc.) are considered as having a definitive diagnosis.
Non-specific benign lesions (e.g., inflammation) are deemed diagnosed if they are confirmed by at least 6 months of follow-up, surgical resection, other biopsy methods, or radiological follow-up showing lesion shrinkage or disappearance.
Atypical cells or normal lung tissue are classified as non-diagnostic.
Time frame: Intra-operative
Defined as the successful positioning of the biopsy needle to the target lesion by the investigator based on intra-operative CT, without the use of other auxiliary puncture tools or needle guidance techniques. If yes, it is defined as technically successful. Technical success rate = (Number of patients with technical success / Total number of participants) × 100%.
Time frame: Intra-operative
The number of needle adjustments from the moment the first needle tip touches the skin until the researcher confirms the puncture is successful, recorded by the investigator during the procedure. Any change in puncture direction, needle withdrawal, or needle removal after needle insertion should be counted.
Time frame: Intra-operative
Refers to the duration from when the needle tip first reaches the skin puncture site to when successful puncture is confirmed (i.e., when the investigator judges that biopsy can be performed based on intra-operative CT scan).
Time frame: Intra-operative
Refers to the total time from when the patient is positioned to when the procedure is completed.
Time frame: Up to 6 months after biopsy
Common complications of percutaneous needle biopsy include puncture site infection, pneumothorax, bleeding, hemoptysis, pleural reaction, etc. Rare complications include air embolism, cardiac tamponade, tumor seeding along the needle tract, nerve injury, etc.
Time frame: Intra-operative
The radiation dose received by the patient as recorded by the CT scan protocol during the biopsy procedure
