CBCT in Guiding Bronchoscopy in Patients With Lung Lesions

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Pulmonary Mass

In brief

This pilot clinical trial studies how well cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) works in guiding bronchoscopy in patients with lung lesions. CBCT during bronchoscopy may help doctors to biopsy lung lesions that are harder to reach.
