EBUS TBNA After PET/CT in Diagnosing Patients With Stage I-IIA Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Evaluated for Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy

This clinical trial studies how well endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) after positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) scan works in diagnosing patients with stage I-IIA non-small cell lung cancer evaluated for stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT). Performing EBUS-TBNA after PET/CT scan may help doctors learn more about the accuracy and ways to find early stage lung cancer.
