==Overview==
Biopsy for lung mass may be classified into 2 categories: non-surgical biopsy and surgical biopsy. Biopsy findings associated with lung mass will depend on tumor [[histology]]. Common types of lung tissue biopsy for pulmonary mass, include: conventional bronchoscopic-guided transbronchial biopsy, bronchoscopic-transbronchial needle aspiration, endobronchial ultrasound-guided sheath transbronchial biopsy, and endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration. Common indications for biopsy in lung mass, include: suspected lung cancer, malignant features (lymph node involvement) .<ref name="pmid1746503">{{cite journal |vauthors=Herman M, Galanter M, Lifshutz H |title=Combined substance abuse and psychiatric disorders in homeless and domiciled patients |journal=Am J Drug Alcohol Abuse |volume=17 |issue=4 |pages=415–22 |year=1991 |pmid=1746503 |doi= |url=}}</ref><ref name="pmid15347106">{{cite journal |vauthors=Podbielski FJ, Rodriguez HE, Brown AM, Blecha MJ, Salazar MR, Connolly MM |title=Percutaneous biopsy in evaluation of lung nodules |journal=JSLS |volume=8 |issue=3 |pages=213–6 |year=2004 |pmid=15347106 |pmc=3016799 |doi= |url=}}</ref>
