Shape-sensing Versus Electromagnetic Robotic Bronchoscopy for Evaluation of PulmoNary LEsions

Starting soon · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Peripheral Pulmonary Lesions (PPLs), Lung Nodules

In brief

This is an investigator-initiated, multicenter, non inferiority, cluster randomized controlled trial. The primary objective is to compare the diagnostic yield of the electromagnetic robotic assisted bronchoscopy with digital tomosynthesis (Galaxy system by Noah Medical) to the shape sensing robotic assisted bronchoscopy with integrated cone beam CT (Ion™ Endoluminal System by Intuitive) in patients undergoing bronchoscopy for peripheral pulmonary lesion (PPL) evaluation.
