Radial-Probe Endobronchial Ultrasound in Detecting Atelectasis in Patients Undergoing Peripheral Bronchoscopy

United States57 participantsStarted 2018-04-30

Plain-language summary

This trial studies how well radial-probe endobronchial ultrasound works in detecting the complete or partial collapse of the lung in patients undergoing peripheral bronchoscopy. Diagnostic procedures, such as radial-probe endobronchial ultrasound and bronchoscopy, use a thin, tube-like instrument inserted through the nose or mouth to view and take pictures of the inside of the trachea, air passages, and lungs.
