Early Detection and Staging of Endobronchial Lung and Pleural Cancer, Airway Injury, and Prostate Cancer

Overview

This study has been designed to utilize already obtained biopsy specimens for investigation of the utility of a new, non-invasive optical diagnostic technique. The study will allow a careful correlation between the Optical coherence tomography findings and conventional histology.

Optical coherence tomography is a non-invasive diagnostic technique that can provide information about tissue abnormalities, change in structure of an organ. This technique uses a near-infrared diode to emit light that can produce images of the specimen under investigation without causing damage or alterations.
