Sponsor's own description

Lung cancer is the second most commonly diagnosed cancer worldwide, after breast cancer, and its incidence continues to grow. Flexible bronchoscopy is the diagnostic tool of choice to diagnose endobronchial malignancies. It allows inspection and biopsy of any endobronchial abnormalities under direct vision. Despite specimens are obtained under direct vision, there is a significant failure rate. This may necessitate repeating bronchoscopy. To guide the bronchoscopist on the quality and quantity of specimens during bronchoscopic biopsies for the diagnosis of lung cancer is rapid on-site evaluation (ROSE) of cytological specimens. Intra-procedural Frozen Section Evaluation (FROSE) of bronchoscopic biopsy specimens is an alternative to ROSE and helps preventing repeated bronchoscopies. Medical thoracoscopy increases the diagnostic yield of MPE as it offers the clinician a "window" for direct visualization and collection of samples from the parietal pleura.The acquracy of frozen section biopsies in pleural tumours is largely undefined. Confirmation of the pleural malignancy can lead to immediate pleurodesis following the pleural inspection and biopsy. To our knowledge limited studies discussed the value of frozen section in both bronchoscopic and thoracoscopic biopsies.
