Schematic diagram of CPLT and GLT localization techniques during operation. A The needle punctures into the lung parenchyma through a suitable angle, and the anchor is placed around the nodule, while the wire is left in the chest cavity; B After CPLT localization, the visceral pleural punctured point was used to plan the resected area for wedge resection. C Anchor was used as a marker for finding GGO after CPLT localization; D After GLT localization, the resection area was planned centered by the marked visceral pleura point. Note: CPLT, CT-guided percutaneous localization technique; GLT, geometric localization technique; GGO, ground glass opacity
