Comparing two ways to look at lung spots during a bronchoscopy
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study compares two types of robotic bronchoscopy (a way to look inside your lungs) to see which is better at evaluating suspicious spots. It might help find out more about your lung spot with less discomfort.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You are scheduled for a bronchoscopy to check a spot in your lung.
- You can give your consent to participate.

This study tests whether using a rapid on-site evaluation (ROSE) during a robotic-assisted bronchoscopy can improve the quality of tissue samples for genetic testing. It may help doctors get better biopsies with fewer procedures.
This study compares two advanced imaging methods (CLE and ROSE) used during a bronchoscopy to check lung samples right away. The goal is to see which technique better helps doctors get a clear diagnosis from a small lung nodule.
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 compares two types of needles used in a CT-guided lung biopsy to see which one is better at diagnosing lung nodules. The trial aims to find a more accurate and safe way to obtain tissue samples from peripheral lung nodules, which could help guide treatment decisions.
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.
This trial compares two types of bronchoscopy (thin-tube lung camera) methods to see which one better samples lung nodules. You may be able to join if you have a suspicious lung nodule and need a biopsy.
