Summary

This study looked at three ways to take a small sample of lung tissue (biopsy) in 60 adults with interstitial lung diseases. The goal was to find which method gives the most accurate diagnosis and causes the fewest side effects. The methods tested were forceps biopsy, cryobiopsy (using extreme cold), and thoracoscopic biopsy (a minimally invasive surgery). Results help doctors choose the best technique for each patient.
