TECHNICAL PARAMETERS AND CRITERIA FOR VIRTUAL BRONCHOSCOPY IN DIAGNOSTICS OF TRACHIAL AND BRONCHIAL RUPTURES [PDF]
VB is a non-invasive technique and follow-up tool tolerant of most patients, requiring a precise method of diagnosis, especially in ruptures with the formation of high-grade stenoses for which FB is not applicable, as well as in children and elderly or ...

Bronchus perforation by EZ-Blocker endobronchial blocker during esophageal resection after neoadjuvant chemoradiation -a case report- [PDF]
Background Double-lumen tubes (DLT) and endobronchial blockers (EB) are used for one-lung ventilation in thoracic surgery. More complications are seen when using DLT when compared to EB, while major complications are rarely seen.

Differentiable Topology-Preserved Distance Transform for Pulmonary Airway Segmentation [PDF]
Detailed pulmonary airway segmentation is a clinically important task for endobronchial intervention and treatment of peripheral located lung cancer lesions. Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) are promising tools for medical image analysis but have been performing poorly for cases when existing a significant imbalanced feature distribution, which is ...
