Flexible bronchoscopy during mechanical ventilation. Why and why not
Journal of Mechanical Ventilation, 2022 Flexible bronchoscopy has been utilized in the intensive care units and in mechanically ventilated patients for many decades. The procedure is reasonably safe and has wide range of diagnostic and therapeutic benefits in patients undergoing mechanical ...

In vivo endoscopic autofluorescence microspectro-imaging of bronchi and alveoli [PDF]
Dans Endoscopic Microscopy III, (Guillermo J. Tearney and Thomas
D. Wang - Editors) - In vivo endoscopic autofluorescence microspectro-imaging
of bronchi and alveoli, San Jose : \'Etats-Unis d'Am\'erique (2008), 2008 Fibered confocal fluorescence microscopy (FCFM) is a new technique that can be used during a bronchoscopy to analyze the nature of the human bronchial and alveolar mucosa fluorescence microstructure. An endoscopic fibered confocal fluorescence microscopy system with spectroscopic analysis capability was developed allowing real-time, simultaneous images

Bronchoscopy by the anaesthetist [PDF]
Canadian Anaesthetists’ Society Journal, 1957 Bronchoscopy is a technique easily mastered by the anaesthetist. It can at times be life-saving and at other times reduce postoperative morbidity. The necessary apparatus is simple and can be part of the equipment of any anaesthetic department Diagnostic bronchoscopy belongs to the field of the thoracic surgeon and the otolaryngologist, but by ...

Tracking and Mapping in Medical Computer Vision: A Review [PDF]
, 2023 As computer vision algorithms increase in capability, their applications in clinical systems will become more pervasive. These applications include: diagnostics, such as colonoscopy and bronchoscopy; guiding biopsies, minimally invasive interventions, and surgery; automating instrument motion; and providing image guidance using pre-operative scans ...

FBG-Based Triaxial Force Sensor Integrated with an Eccentrically Configured Imaging Probe for Endoluminal Optical Biopsy [PDF]
, 2020 Accurate force sensing is important for endoluminal intervention in terms of both safety and lesion targeting. This paper develops an FBG-based force sensor for robotic bronchoscopy by configuring three FBG sensors at the lateral side of a conical substrate.

International Journal of Virtual Reality, 2000 Patients potentially suffer and are exposed to danger during invasive bronchoscopic diagnosis and surgery. In order to reduce this hazardous risk, we have developed an interactive virtual environment for the simulation of bronchoscopy (in short, called "virtual bronchoscopy"). Because of this state-of-the-art application, medical doctors can now obtain

Missed distal tracheal foreign body in consecutive bronchoscopies in a 6-year-old boy
Nigerian Journal of Surgery, 2017 It is unusual but not uncommon for foreign bodies to be missed at bronchoscopy. This case report highlights the importance of the clinical history in the diagnosis of aspirated foreign bodies and the usefulness of chest imaging modalities.

THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN PEAK EXPIRATORY FLOW RATE BEFORE BRONCHOSCOPY AND ARTERIAL OXYGEN DESATURATION DURING BRONCHOSCOPY [PDF]
Acta Medica Iranica, 2008 A significant reduction in arterial blood oxygen saturation during fiberoptic bronchoscopy has been proved but it is not yet known whether all patients need supplemental oxygen during this procedure.
