Study Summary
This trial is testing whether a maneuver called "rapid rollover" can help reduce the risk of pneumothorax (collapsed lung) after a CT-guided lung biopsy.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients needing a CT-guided lung biopsy at the Department of Radiology and Biomedical Imaging. It's not suitable for those who can't be repositioned due to spine issues, have certain lesion locations, or develop specific complications during the procedure.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests if 'rapid rollover'—turning patients so the biopsy side is down right after needle removal—can reduce collapsed lung risk post-biopsy. Participants are randomly assigned to either try this technique or follow standard care.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include risks associated with CT-guided lung biopsies such as pain at the biopsy site, bleeding, and rarely more serious complications like air trapped in the chest cavity requiring medical intervention.

Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Rapid RolloverExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants will have their body re-positioned upon being transferred to the stretcher from the CT scanner table such that the biopsy site is down. Participants will be maintained in the same position for the post-biopsy CT scanner as well as in the post-procedure recovery area for a minimum of 2 hours.
Group II: ControlActive Control1 Intervention
CT-guided lung biopsy will be performed per standard protocols
