New imaging tool for faster lung cancer detection during bronchoscopy
Part of Cancer, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial is testing a new imaging technology that uses artificial intelligence to help doctors quickly identify lung cancer during a standard bronchoscopy procedure. If you are scheduled for a lung biopsy to check for cancer, this study may help improve detection speed and accuracy.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 22 years of age or older.
- You are scheduled for a standard lung biopsy procedure (EBUS-TBNA or peripheral lung biopsy) to check for suspected lung cancer.
- Your doctor has a moderate to high suspicion that you may have lung cancer.
- You are able to undergo the scheduled procedure safely.

This study tests whether an artificial intelligence (AI) tool can help doctors quickly examine tissue samples taken during a lung biopsy. It aims to see if the AI can improve the accuracy and speed of diagnosing lung conditions.
This study tests a new microscope that quickly analyzes lung tissue during a bronchoscopy or surgery. It may help doctors make faster, more accurate decisions about your care.
This study tests a new 3D X-ray imaging technique used during a lung biopsy to help doctors see the spot more clearly and guide the biopsy more precisely. It may make the procedure faster and more accurate for people with spots in the outer parts of the lungs.
This study uses a special eye-like scanning camera (full-field optical coherence tomography) to look at tiny lung tissue samples taken during routine bronchoscopy. It may help doctors learn more from small biopsies used to diagnose or stage lung problems.
This trial tests if a special microscope (confocal laser endomicroscopy) used during a bronchoscopy can help doctors see and diagnose suspicious lung spots more clearly. It may help you if you have a small-to-medium sized spot in your lung that needs a biopsy.
This trial tests a newer way to get a tissue sample from a lung nodule using a bronchoscope (a thin tube through the airway). The goal is to see if this method can accurately diagnose lung spots that might be cancer, possibly avoiding more invasive surgery.
