Lung lesion assessment with a new bronchoscope
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests a new bronchoscope and needle to take samples from lung nodules or lymph nodes. It aims to see if this tool can accurately diagnose lesions in certain parts of the lung.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have a lung nodule at least 10 mm or a lymph node at least 5 mm that needs a biopsy.
- The lesion is in the inner or middle part of your lung, not too close to the windpipe split.
- You are scheduled for a bronchoscopy within 30 days of your scan.
- You are not taking blood thinners that cannot be paused, and do not have a bleeding disorder.

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 study tests a new microscope probe called CelTouch that doctors can use during a lung biopsy to see cells in real time, which may help diagnose lung lesions more accurately.
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 trial tests a mobile 4D CT scanner to help doctors see and biopsy lung nodules more clearly. It aims to make the procedure safer and more accurate.
