Lung cancer, Non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), Small cell lung cancer
Results
Phase 3
This trial looked at a test called an endobronchial ultrasound after a CT scan to diagnose lung cancer.
Doctors usually use tests such as a CT scan and a bronchoscopy that looks inside the airways to diagnose lung cancer. You may need other tests to work out how far the cancer has grown and if it has spread (the stage of the cancer). Knowing the stage of the cancer is important as it helps doctors to work out the best treatment.
Recruitment start: 10 June 2008
Recruitment end: 4 July 2011
