Objective To evaluate the application value of smartphone level meter combined with laser guidance device in CT-guided percutaneous lung puncture. Methods A historical control study was conducted, and enrolling 60 patients who underwent CT-guided lung puncture at the Fourth Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University from October 2023 to July 2025. A total of 60 patients (45 males, 15 females) with a mean age of (72.90 ± 8.82) years were included. 30 patients who underwent CT-guided lung puncture, and 30 patients who received smartphone level meter-assisted procedures as the experimental group. The following parameters were compared between the two groups: coaxial needle insertion attempts, pneumothorax incidence, bleeding severity, puncture duration, and achievable puncture angle. Results The experimental group demonstrated significantly fewer coaxial needle insertion attempts [1.00 (1.00, 2.00) vs. 2.00 (2.00, 3.00), P < 0.001], lower pneumothorax incidence (13.3% vs. 36.6%, P = 0.037), shorter puncture duration [(24.90 ± 4.68)min vs. (29.93 ± 10.11)min, P = 0.02], and larger achievable puncture angles [19.50° (7.75°, 41.00°) vs. 7.00° (1.75°, 25.25°), P = 0.04] compared to the control group. No statistically significant difference was observed in bleeding severity (P = 0.481). Conclusions The combination of a smartphone level meter and laser guidance device effectively reduces the number of coaxial needle insertion attempts, lowers the incidence of pneumothorax, shortens the procedure duration, and enables a wider achievable puncture angle in CT-guided percutaneous lung puncture. This technique shows promising clinical application value for improving the safety and efficiency of the procedure.
