In the researchers' words

This randomized controlled trial evaluates the integration of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) and robotic-assisted bronchoscopy (RAB) for diagnosing pulmonary lesions, hypothesizing improved diagnostic yield compared to traditional methods. The trial involves 2 study arms (2x46 lesions) over 24 months with 12 months of follow-up and the diagnostic yield (ATS 2024 criteria) as the primary endpoint.
