AB  - An increasing number of peripheral pulmonary lesions (PPLs) requiring tissue 
      verification to establish a definite diagnosis for further individualized 
      management are detected due to the growing adoption of lung cancer screening by 
      chest computed tomography (CT), especially low-dose CT. However, the 
      morphological diagnosis of PPLs remains challenging. Transbronchial lung 
      cryobiopsy (TBLC) that can retrieve larger specimens with more preserved cellular 
      architecture and fewer crush artifacts in comparison with conventional 
      transbronchial forceps biopsy (TBFB), as an emerging technology for diagnosing 
      PPLs, has been demonstrated to have the potential to resolve the clinical dilemma 
      pertaining to currently available sampling devices (e.g., forceps, needle and 
      brush) and become a diagnostic cornerstone for PPLs. Of note, with the 
      introduction of the 1.1 mm cryoprobe that will be more compatible with advanced 
      bronchoscopic navigation techniques, such as radial endobronchial ultrasound 
      (r-EBUS), virtual bronchoscopic navigation (VBN) and electromagnetic navigation 
      bronchoscopy (ENB), the use of TBLC is expected to gain more popularity in the 
      diagnosis of PPLs. While much remains for exploration using the TBLC technique 
      for diagnosing PPLs, it can be envisaged that the emergence of additional studies 
      with larger data accrual will hopefully add to the body of evidence in this 
      field.
