N2 - Bronchoscopic interventions, such as transbronchial needle aspiration (TBNA), are commonly performed procedures to diagnose and stage lung cancer. However, due to the complex structure of the lung, one of the main challenges is to find the exact position to perform a biopsy and to actually hit the biopsy target (e.g., a lesion). Today, most interventions are accompanied by fluoroscopy to verify the position of the biopsy instrument, which means additional radiation exposure for the patient and the medical staff. Furthermore, the diagnostic yield of TBNA is particularly low for peripheral lesions.
