Transbronchial lung cryobiopsy for the diagnosis of lepidic-predominant lung adenocarcinoma

Lung cancer is one of the most common malignancies globally with lung adenocarcinoma as the most common type of lung cancer. With new classification of lung cancers in 2011, it has become pertinent that adequate tissue is obtained for the diagnosis and subtyping of lung adenocarcinoma particularly f...
