Median sizes of tumours were 16 and 32\u2005mm for EMN and rEBUS, respectively. Overall sensitivity for rEBUS and EMN was 84.3%. Cytology was found to be complementary with biopsies, with 13.3% of cancer diagnosed on cytology while biopsies were negative. Complication rate was 2.4% (pneumothorax 1.5%, mild haemoptysis 0.9%).
