Summary
Evaluating an integrated diagnostic work-up of virtual navigation bronchoscopy (VNB), confocal laser endomicroscopy and micro computerized tomography (micro-CT) in the diagnostic path of pulmonary lesions in the non-oncological patient.
Detailed description
The region(s) of interest that has/have to be sampled, will be selected upfront. Guided by the endobronchial pathway that is created by virtual bronchoscopy, the flexible bronchoscope will be navigated to the regions of interest and an optical biopsy of the region will be obtained using pCLE. One biopsy sample will be processed in the endoscopy suite to be able to prepare it for micro-CT analysis.
