This is a prospective randomized clinical trial of males and females age 21 or older being evaluated for lung cancer. The study will enroll approximately 300 subjects (150 in each arm) at 3 participating centers (MUSC, Mayo Clinic Rochester and Jacksonville). This sample size will provide sufficient statistical power (i.e. \>80%) using a non-inferiority study design with 1-sided hypothesis testing (Farrington and Manning 1990) to determine whether or not the sensitivity of the EUS/EBUS diagnostic technique is inferior (i.e. 10% or more lower) when compared to the sensitivity of malignant mediastinal adenopathy of about 40%. This study requires subjects to agree to the selection of their standard of care procedure. Subjects will be randomized (stratified computer generated randomization stratified y center and y CT positivity for pathologically enlarged \[\>1cm short axis\] node - 10 strata). Randomization will use variable block sizes (4-8), so that randomization allocation remains concealed as investigators will not be blinded. This study requires subjects to consent to the release of outcome data and follow-up data to be used for study analysis. No additional visit will be required for this study; this study will not require any additional time requirements beyond their scheduled evaluations.
