Fig. 2 — Three-dimensional images for planning of “virtual-assisted lung mapping (VAL-MAP)” indicating target nodules (red) and planned markings (blue) and thoracoscopic view of actual markings (blue) on the lung surface. (Left upper) A marking spot was designed to indicate an ideal resection line in S3 segmentectomy. (Left lower) A marking spot was designed to indicate an ideal resection line in complex segmentectomy of S6 plus S8, and another spot was designed to identify the target lesion (pure GGN) in S6. (Right) Three markings were designed to indicate an ideal resection line in wedge resection for the small pure GGN (8 mm) in the lingular segment
