Diagnostic Yield and Molecular Testing Adequacy of Transbronchial Cryoprobe Biopsy Versus Needle Aspiration in Robotic Bronchoscopy

BACKGROUND: In the AQuIRE trial, most cases (83.6%) did not involve transbronchial needle aspiration (TBNA), often underutilized due to challenges in accessing peripheral pulmonary lesions (PPLs). Advances in robotic bronchoscopy with shape-sensing technology (ssRAB) have mitigat...
