With the advent of lung cancer screening, and the increasingly frequent use of computed tomography (CT) scanning for investigating non-pulmonary pathology (for example CT coronary angiogram), the number of pulmonary nodules requiring further investigation has risen significantly. Most of these nodules are found in the lung periphery, which presents challenges to biopsy, and many centers rely on trans-thoracic needle biopsy performed under image guidance by radiologists. However, the desire to minimize complications is driving the development of increasingly accurate navigation bronchoscopy platforms, something that will be crucial in the new era of bronchoscopic therapeutics for lung cancer. This review describes these platforms, summarizes the current evidence for their use, and takes a look at future developments.
