Original description
* The objective of this research is to determine the accuracy of different types of lung transthoracal needle aspiration (TTNA) i.e. jabbing-then-suction, suction-with-jabbing, and suction-only TTNA in patients with suspected lung cancer. * Researchers will compare these techniques to determine whether there are any quality differences in the obtained tumor samplesRead full original descriptionShow less

Accuracy Between Jabbing-then-suction, Suction-with-jabbing, and Suction-only Transthoracal Needle Aspiration (TTNA) Techniques in Suspected Lung Cancer Patients

* The objective of this research is to determine the accuracy of different types of lung transthoracal needle aspiration (TTNA) i.e. jabbing-then-suction, suction-with-jabbing, and suction-only TTNA in patients with suspected lung cancer. * Researchers will compare these techniques to determine whether there are any quality differences in the obtained tumor samples

Inclusion: Patients with suspected lung cancer who will undergo diagnostic testing using ultrasound-guided TTNA of the lung with cell block and core biopsy; Patients aged 18-75 years; The tumor is located peripherally, attached to the chest wall.

Exclusion: Patient with respiratory failure, on positive pressure ventilation; Platelet count <100,000/mm3 and international normalized ratio (INR) >1.4; Patient refuses lung biopsy; Non-cooperative patient; Severe pulmonary emphysema; Contralateral pneumonectomy; Advanced pulmonary fibrosis.
