Validation of Rapid On-site Diagnostics in Early Stage Lung Cancer Sampling With a Higher Harmonic Generation Microscope

Sponsor: Radboud University Medical Center

Summary

The aim of this study is to verify a new microscopic technique in diagnosing patients suspected of lung cancer. Patients will undergo navigational bronchoscopy or surgical resection as a part of standard of care. Biopsies taken during this procedure will be imaged for a few minutes with a higher harmonic generation (HHG) microscope, after which the material is taken to the pathology department for histopathology assessment, which is currently the golden standard for diagnosis.
