Brief Summary
This study was to assess the diagnostic yield and the safety of bronchoscopic cryotechniques in the management of endobronchial tumors.
Detailed Description
Novel flexible cryoprobes were introduced for tissue sampling during bronchoscopy. Employing this approach, the sample is collected when frozen, with the tissue attached to the frozen end of the probe...
Eligibility Criteria
