Pneumothorax Post CT Lung Biopsy
A study testing CT scan in people with Lung Nodules, run by University Health Network, Toronto at 1 site in Canada.
Trial summary
A CT scan is performed after a lung biopsy in order to detect a Pneumothorax. We postulate that CT is more useful than chest radiography Read more about this study
