Abstract: A sampling device insertable into a bronchoscope to obtain samples of target nodules in lungs of a patient, the system can include a sampling needle, a needle inlet guide tube, and a needle actuator. The sampling needle can extend between a base and a tip. The needle inlet guide tube can be removably couplable to the bronchoscope and can define a working lumen. The needle actuator can be configured to receive the base of the sampling needle to extend the sampling needle through the working lumen. The needle actuator can be engageable with the needle inlet guide tube to move the sampling needle through the sampling device. The sampling device can include operating states. In each of the operating states, the needle actuator can move relative to the needle inlet guide tube to move the tip of the sampling needle with respect to the sampling device.
