CBCT in Guiding Bronchoscopy in Patients With Lung Lesions
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.

Who may be able to participate
The sponsor separates these requirements into two groups. You do not need to interpret them alone—use them to guide a conversation with the study team.
Patients undergoing guided-bronchoscopy for diagnosis of peripheral lung lesion/s \> 1 and \< 3 cm in diameter located in the outer 2/3 of the lung fields
- Pregnant or breastfeeding women
- Patient with indications for mediastinal lymph node (LN) sampling per 13th American College of Clinical Pharmacy (ACCP) guidelines
- Patient with metastatic disease (from primaries other than lung) who have suspicious mediastinal or hilar LN that require sampling
- Patients with contraindication/s for general anesthesia (e.g., severe and active coronary artery disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease \[COPD\] with forced expiratory volume in 1 second \[FEV1\] \< 1 liter, uncontrolled hypertension, increased intracranial pressure, history of intolerance to general anesthesia)
- Dementia or other severe cognitive impairment causing inability to understand or consent to the procedure and study
Important: This is the sponsor’s public criteria, not a determination of eligibility. The study team must review your individual situation.
