Practice patterns and diagnoses: SEER and Texas Cancer Registry 1995 to 2007. Diagram shows breakdown into guideline-consistent care vs guideline-inconsistent care, which was based on the first invasive test performed. Groups were subclassified based on tumor histology. Patients who had NSCLC were further subclassified based on whether mediastinal sampling was ever performed prior to treatment. EBUS = endobronchial ultrasound; EUS = endoscopic ultrasound; TBNA = transbronchial needle aspiration. See Figure 1 legend for expansion of other abbreviation.
