Cryoprobe Improves Diagnostic Accuracy in Transbronchial Lung Biopsies

Cryoprobe improves diagnostic accuracy in transbronchial lung biopsies

In a new study published in JAMA, the diagnostic yield of transbronchial lung biopsy was significantly higher when using a cryoprobe versus forceps in a group of patients with pulmonary nodules or masses, recent lung transplant, and diffuse parenchymal lung disease.
