Application of streak metal artifact reduction technique in cone-beam computed tomography guided percutaneous transthoracic needle biopsy

SMART technology effectively reduces metal artifacts, enabling clearer visualization of hidden anatomical structures. Through quantitative analysis, this study confirms the clinical value of SMART in CBCT-guided PTNB, providing a technical reference for precise diagnosis and treatment of small pulmonary lesions.
