Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The objective of the study was to compare the value of routine gene testing and next-generation sequencing (NGS) in detecting gene mutations of small specimens obtained by endobronchial ultrasound transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) and get the knowledge of how many EBUS-TBNA samples were adequate for NGS.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Patients who are suspected with nonsquamous non-small cell lung cancer according to the clinical, lab examination and imaging data and had never been diagnosed as primary lung cancer before will be enrolled into the study. 2. The clinical stage of the patients should be in stage IIIA-IV judged by the imaging data and can't receive surgery initially. 4\. There exist at least one lesions that can be obtained by EBUS-TBNA. Exclusion Criteria: 1. The patient is highly suspected to benign lesion, small cell lung cancer and squamous cell carcinoma according to the clinical data. 2. Surgery was considered to be the primary treatment. 3. Patients who are diagnosed with lung cancer and received treatment with drugs or recurrent with lung cancer will be excluded. 4. Severe cardiopulmonary dysfunction and other indications that can't tolerate bronchoscopy.
