Navigation Endobronchial Ultrasound
The Efficacy of Combining Endoscopic Modalities for the Diagnosis of Solitary Pulmonary Lesions
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 14 May 2025
Brief summary (registry, in English)
Lung cancer is the primary cause of cancer related deaths in Denmark. In order to improve the prognosis diagnosis in earlier stages are needed. This will however require improved sampling techniques from very small lung lesions. One method involves the use of a radial ultrasound probe inserted in the working channel of the bronchoscope, to more accurately identify the lung lesions before sampling them (rEBUS). The other method involves the use of electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy (ENB) to guide the operator to the lung lesion. This study aims to determine whether a combination of rEBUS and ENB is superior to ENB alone in biopsy sampling. The study will be conducted as a non-blinded RCT. Furthermore, we will make an estimate of the hospital costs of the entire diagnostic work up for lung cancer when combining ENB and rEBUS compared to ENB alone.
