Summary

This trial compares the yield of cTBNA (conventional Transbronchial Needle Aspiration) versus the EBUS-TBNA (Endobronchial Ultrasound guided TBNA) for obtaining cytology when they are combined with endobronchial biopsy and transbronchial lung biopsy and rapid onsite examination (ROSE) of the obtained smears in the diagnosis of suspected sarcoidosis patients visiting our hospital for evaluation of mediastinal lymphadenopathy.
