Summary

Due to CT screening, a lot of peripheral nodule not accessible to conventional endoscopy will be found. Electromagnetic navigation directed bronchoscopy (ENB) is a new technique needing validation. the primary aim of the study is to compare ENB to radiologically guided bronchoscopy, considered the standard comparator.

TypeNameDescription
PROCEDUREBronchoscopyDuring a general anaesthesia, an evaluation will be done by conventional bronchoscopy guided by fluoroscopy and by bronchial endoscopy guided by electromagnetic navigation, the selection of order in techniques being randomly assigned.
