Operator Radiation Exposure During Image-Guided Robotic-Assisted Bronchoscopy: A Multicenter Prospective Cohort Study

Overview

About this study

This is a multicenter, single-arm, prospective, observational study designed to evaluate bronchoscopist radiation exposure during standard-of-care image-guided robotic-assisted bronchoscopy (RAB) for sampling of a single pulmonary parenchymal lesion.

Participation eligibility

Participant eligibility includes age, gender, type and stage of disease, and previous treatments or health concerns. Guidelines differ from study to study, and identify who can or cannot participate.

Inclusion Criteria:

* Operator performing image-guided RAB on adult patients (age ≥18 years old)
* A single participating operator per study site
* Image-guided RAB procedure is planned for standard of care diagnostic sampling of a single parenchymal lung lesion at participating sites

* Operator refusal to participate
* Image-guided RAB procedure performed on:

* Patients age <18 years old
* Pregnant women
* Patients undergoing standard of care robotic assisted bronchoscopy with plan to sample >1 pulmonary parenchymal lesion
* Patients undergoing standard of care robotic assisted bronchoscopy for lesion localization (injection of dye/marker or fiducial marker deployment)
* Patients undergoing standard of care robotic assisted bronchoscopy for a therapeutic intervention

Note: Other protocol defined Inclusion/Exclusion Criteria may apply.
