Summary

This study looks at whether fluid washed from inside a lung tumor can find genetic changes in early-stage lung cancer. About 50 adults with suspected lung cancer will have a special bronchoscopy to collect this fluid. The goal is to see if this method is as accurate as standard tissue or blood tests for guiding treatment.
