Official title
Endobronchial Ultrasound-guided Transbronchial Needle Aspiration Using a 22 vs 25-Gauge Needle; A Randomized Controlled Trial
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The goal of this clinical research study is to compare the effectiveness of a smaller, 25-gauge needle when used in an endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) instead of a standard 22-gauge needle. The safety of the needles will also be studied.
