Diagnosis of Peripheral Lung Nodules Using Cryobiopsy

NCT04885595 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 54

Last updated 2024-06-28

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Since the traditional radial endobronchial ultrasound guided biopsy technique of solitary pulmonary nodules using the forceps has several shortcomings, the purpose of this study is to investigate a new biopsy technique using the transbronchial cryobrobe

Conditions

  • Lung; Node

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Forceps biopsy and cryobiopsy

Once the nodule is visualized by radial EBUS, the position of the probe in relation to the lesion is noted. Routinely, forceps biopsy and cryobiopsy are used serially in each patient within the same session.
