High diagnostic yield from transbronchial biopsy of solitary pulmonary nodules using low-dose CT-guidance

ABSTRACT Background and objective: The diagnostic yield from fluoroscopy‐guided bronchoscopic transbronchial biopsy of small solitary pulmonary nodules is low. The hypothesis tested in the present study was that the diagnostic yield can be significantly increased by combining flexible bronchoscopy...
