NCT ID NCT06489678
First seen May 12, 2026 · Last updated May 12, 2026
Summary
This study compares a new approach using cone-beam CT and robotic-assisted bronchoscopy against standard methods for taking lung tissue samples. The goal is to see if the new technique improves the chance of getting a clear diagnosis for lung cancer or other lung diseases. About 300 adults scheduled for a lung biopsy will take part, and researchers will track how often the biopsy correctly identifies the problem.
