US NAB With ROSE Versus US FNAB With no ROSE

This is an investigator-initiated, single center, controlled, randomized clinical trial with two parallel arms in a 1:1 ratio. The objective of the study is to systematically assess the influence of rapid on-site evaluation (ROSE) on the diagnostic yield for diagnosis and molecular profiling, as well as on the safety, of pulmonologist-performed ultrasound-assisted needle aspiration biopsy (US-NAB) of superficial lesions across different metastatic sites in a series of consecutive patients with suspect locally advanced or advanced lung cancer.
