19 Invasive staging guidelines Recommendations 1 strong 2 weak evidence A high B moderate C (very) low Detterbeck FC. Chest 2007; 132: Invasive staging guidelines extensive mediastinal infiltration of tumor (no distant mets) CT assessment sufficient recommend. 2C enlarged, discrete mediastinal nodes by CT (no distant mets): invasive staging (regardless of PET findings) recommend. 1B confirmation N2,3: TBNA, TTNA, EUS-NA EBUS-NA (experience!) recommend. 1B needle technique - mediastinoscopy recommend. 1C Detterbeck FC.
