nCLE-Cone-beam CT Navigation Bronchoscopy
Sponsor: Academisch Medisch Centrum - Universiteit van Amsterdam (AMC-UvA)
Summary
The goal of this proof of principle observational study is to investigate in patients with suspected peripheral pulmonary nodules. The main question it aims to answer is: • What is the concordance between CBCT navigation success (tool-in-lesion on CBCT spin) and nCLE tool-in-lesion confirmation (tool-in-lesion nCLE criteria observed). Participants scheduled to undergo a diagnostic conebeam navigation bronchoscopy will be included in the study. nCLE imaging at the tip of the TBNA needle will be added to the procedure for study purposes. Two needle punctures of the pulmonary nodule will be followed by nCLE imaging directly followed by a tool-in-lesion CBCT spin in order to compare nCLE results with CBCT results.
