background of disease
- 828,000 new cases of lung cancer and 657,000 of deaths from lung cancer[1] .
- the 5-year survival rate is above 90% for the early-stage lung cancers and less than 10% for the late stages.
- the sensitive of bronchoscopy is not sufficient. the average diagnostic accuracy of bronchoscopy for distal bronchial and extratracheal lesions is only 31% [2-3] .
- the diagnostic accuracy of percutaneous lung biopsy fluctuates remarkably, showing a high requirement for sampling[4-6] .
