Official Title: Role of Bronchoscopy Assisted by Electromagnetic Navigation (EMN) in the Diagnosis of Small Pulmonary Nodules of Indeterminate Nature. A Prospective Study by the European
Brief 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.
