One of the most important aspects of interventional pulmonology is to obtain tissue or liquid samples of the chest to diagnose a respiratory disease; however, it is still possible to obtain insufficient tissue or cytologic specimens. Indeed, methylation detection is an effective method by which to establish a diagnosis. This review focuses on the clinical application of short stature homeobox 2 and RAS-associated domain family 1 subtype A DNA methylation detection in interventional pulmonology, including bronchoscopic fluid biopsy, transbronchial needle aspiration, and pleural effusion.
