Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare the yield of two methods for obtaining a lung tissue sample: Procedure #1: standard fiberoptic bronchoscopy (FB) with fluoroscopy, and Procedure #2: ultrathin bronchoscope procedure with fluoroscopy and radial endobronchial ultrasound (R-EBUS). These two procedures are similar in that they both: (1) enable your doctor to look inside your lungs with a device called a bronchoscope, and (2) Use fluoroscopy, which is a technique that uses X-rays to see your lungs. This will give the doctor an opportunity to use either of the bronchoscopy methods described above and compare the tests to see if R-EBUS provides better results than standard bronchoscopy.

Primary Outcome

Diagnostic yield of standard FB with fluoroscopy using standard adult bronchoscope versus bronchoscopy using ultrathin bronchoscope in combination with R-EBUS with or without Guidesheath for lung lesions 2-5 cm.

Interventions

  • DEVICE Standard FB with fluoroscopy
  • DEVICE R-EBUS with ultrathin bronchoscope
