NCT ID NCT07418450

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looks at whether doctors need to change the needle between taking samples from different lymph nodes when staging lung cancer. About 30 people with suspected or confirmed lung cancer will have two rounds of staging—one with a needle change and one without. The goal is to see if changing the needle gives more accurate results.
