Rapid on-site evaluation (ROSE) of cytopathology plays an important role in determining whether representative samples have been taken during navigation bronchoscopy. With touch imprint cytology (TIC), histologic samples can be assessed using ROSE. Although advised by guidelines, there have been almost no studies on the performance of TIC during navigation bronchoscopy. The objective of this study was to evaluate the value of TIC-ROSE (forceps/cryobiopsy) in combination with conventional ROSE (cytology needle/brush).
