Overview

In this project, the preoperative anatomical location of micro hepatocellular carcinoma under the guidance of CT can provide guidance for accurate surgical resection. It may also shorten the operation time and reduce intraoperative bleeding.

Description

General and basic information of the patients included in the study was collected. After preoperative preparation was completed, on the day of surgery, disposable pulmonary nodular localization needle (Ningbo Sonjiecang Biological Technology Co., LTD., Model: SS510-10) was used for the localization of micro hepatocellular carcinoma that could be found by preoperative CT enhancement or MRI. After the micro hepatocellular carcinoma was located under the guidance of CT, and then the patient was sent to the operating room. During the operation, the lesion was removed according to the tail line of the positioning needle and the position of the positioning needle.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
