Comparison of pathological evaluations of transbronchial lung cryobiopsies in patients with dense versus blizzard signs on radial endobronchial ultrasonography (R-EBUS) and versus patients who did not undergo R-EBUS

	Dense sign (n=18)	Analysis 1	P value	Analysis 2	P value
		Blizzard sign (n=29)		Without R-EBUS (n=38)
Median area (mm2)	12 (4–40)	15 (1–48)	0.73	18 (2–60)	0.13
Pathological confidence			<0.01		<0.05
Level A	10 (55.6)	4 (13.8)		13 (34.2)
Level B	5 (27.8)	19 (65.5)		23 (60.5)
Level C	3 (16.7)	6 (20.7)		2 (5.3)
