Study Summary
This trial is testing if a CBCT-guided navigation bronchoscopy is better than a regular navigation bronchoscopy in finding lung nodules.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with lung nodules that might be cancerous, as calculated by a specific risk calculator. They should need a biopsy and not have plans for certain radiation therapy if the biopsy doesn't diagnose the problem. People can't join if they have serious heart issues, are pregnant, unfit for bronchoscopy, allergic to lidocaine, or cannot stop blood thinners temporarily.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing whether using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) alongside navigation bronchoscopy improves diagnosis of lung nodules compared to just navigation bronchoscopy. It aims to see which method is better at finding out if these nodules are cancerous.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While not explicitly listed in your information provided, side effects from procedures like CBCT-guided navigation bronchoscopy could include discomfort at the site of procedure, bleeding, infection risk and potential reactions to any contrast material used.
