First seen May 08, 2026 · Last updated May 20, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This study compares a newer, less invasive technique called EBUS-TBNA with standard CT/PET scans to see which more accurately stages lymph nodes in patients with early-stage lung cancer who are scheduled for stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT). Accurate staging helps doctors decide the best treatment. The study involves 150 adults with confirmed non-small cell lung cancer who are not candidates for surgery.
