Robot vs. electromagnetic: which lung biopsy method wins?
NCT ID NCT06654271
First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated Apr 30, 2026 · Updated 25 times
Summary
This study compares two advanced techniques for taking tissue samples from lung nodules: robotic-assisted bronchoscopy with cone beam CT and electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy with digital tomosynthesis. About 440 adults scheduled for a lung nodule biopsy will be randomly assigned to one of the two methods. The main goal is to see which technique more often successfully collects tissue that explains the nodule, such as cancer or specific benign conditions.
