The importance of biopsy sample quality is increasing with progress of lung cancer therapies. Cryobiopsy is widely-used in the diagnosis of interstitial lung disease in Europe and the US, and it has been shown to be effective in the diagnosis of lung cancer because it can collect a large sample while causing little tissue damage.
