Abstract
Fiducial localization facilitates identification and removal of small pulmonary nodules and alleviates the need for direct nodule palpation. As shown by our series, thoracoscopic wedge resection with fiducial localization is an accurate and efficient technique. This method provides a standardized means by which to resect small and deep pulmonary nodules or ground-glass opacities.
