Study population

Subjects undergoing a standard of care bronchoscopy to determine lung cancer.

Inclusion criteria

  • Subjects with known or suspected lung cancer with mediastinal adenopathy as defined by a mediastinal lymph node >0.5 cm in short axis on EBUS or any lymph node with uptake on FDG-PET scan that is higher than background PET activity.
  • Participants must lack bleeding disorders

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Subjects who lack fitness for flexible bronchoscopy as determined by the physician performing the bronchoscopy before the procedure
  • Subjects with suspected sarcoidosis, lymphoma, or metastatic cancer from other sites (i.e. those without a known or suspected lung primary)
