In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of Confocal Laser Endomicroscopy (CLE) compared to Rapid On-Site Evaluation (ROSE) for ex vivo lung biopsy specimens obtained via bronchoscopy. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does CLE provide diagnostic accuracy comparable to ROSE for the real-time assessment of peripheral pulmonary lesions? 2. What is the level of consistency between CLE-detected malignant architectural patterns and ROSE-identified atypical cells? Participants with peripheral pulmonary lesions (5-50 mm) undergoing navigational bronchoscopy will have their first retrieved biopsy specimen sequentially analyzed. The specimen will undergo CLE scanning first, followed immediately by ROSE cytology, before being fixed for final histopathological examination (the gold standard). CLE and ROSE interpreters will be blinded to the final patho

📋 Eligibility rules (as published)
Inclusion Criteria: * (1)Imaging Findings: Presence of a peripheral pulmonary lesion (PPL) measuring 5 to 50 mm in maximum diameter on chest CT scan.

(3)Consent: Provision of signed and dated written informed consent prior to any study-specific procedures. Exclusion Criteria: * (1)Contraindications to Bronchoscopy: Patients with severe cardiopulmonary insufficiency or any absolute contraindication to flexible bronchoscopy (e.g., severe hypoxemia, unstable angina, or uncontrolled asthma).
