New imaging combo could make lung biopsies more accurate

NCT ID NCT06505642

First seen Apr 12, 2026 · Last updated Apr 24, 2026 · Updated 4 times

Summary

This study looks at whether a new imaging method, called needle-based confocal laser endomicroscopy (nCLE), can confirm that a biopsy needle has reached a lung nodule. About 25 adults with suspected lung cancer will have nCLE added to their standard biopsy procedure. The goal is to see if nCLE results match up with current imaging techniques, which could help make future biopsies more precise and reduce the need for repeat procedures.
