Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This randomized crossover study aimed to evaluate whether a multimodal biopsy strategy using both needle and forceps can provide additive benefits compared with a single device for diagnosing peripheral pulmonary lesions with electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy under moderate sedation and assess the comparative yield and discordance between the two devices.
