Lung cancer is common in Australia. Multiple diagnostic procedures may be used, thought they have never been directly compared. Our study will determine the optimal path of investigation of patients with suspected lung cancer, examining safety, diagnostic accuracy, cost, and the ability to provide essential information required in lung cancer care. Work will focus on use of CT-guided tests, or bronchoscopy (examination of the inside of the airways), the two most commonly used diagnostic methods.

肺癌在澳大利亚很常见。可能会使用多种诊断程序，尽管它们从未被直接比较过。我们的研究将确定对疑似肺癌患者的最佳调查路径，检查安全性、诊断准确性、成本以及提供肺癌护理所需基本信息的能力。工作将集中在使用CT引导的测试，或支气管镜检查(检查呼吸道内部)，这两种最常用的诊断方法。
