Stand‐alone graph‐based lung airway labeling with quantitative validations

Medical Physics, Volume 53, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Background Previous studies have shown that protecting airways connected to high‐functioning lung parenchyma reduces the risk of post‐treatment radiation‐induced lung injury. To account for airway sparing in radiotherapy planning, a critical requirement is to characterize the geometry and radiation response of individual airway segments ...

Atypical Fibrotic‐Mimicking Pulmonary Sarcoidosis in a Young Female: The Basal Conundrum

Respirology Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
We present a case of pulmonary sarcoidosis in a young female who had a confounding basal‐peripheral phenotype, eventually diagnosed through endobronchial biopsy showing non‐necrotizing granulomas with asteroid bodies. ABSTRACT Pulmonary sarcoidosis is a systemic inflammatory disease characterized by the formation of non‐caseating granulomas; it ...

Gradually Enlarging Nodular Pulmonary Amyloidosis Associated With Sjögren's Syndrome

Respirology Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
A woman with Sjögren's syndrome presented with progressively enlarging pulmonary nodules showing calcification and cystic changes, mimicking metastatic malignancy. Histological examination confirmed AL λ‐type nodular pulmonary amyloidosis. Recognition of this radiological pattern is important to avoid misdiagnosis and unnecessary invasive interventions.

Diagnosis of Synchronous Primary Lung Cancers Using EBUS‐TBNA and BDBD‐Assisted Transbronchial Biopsy During a Single Bronchoscopic Procedure: A Case Report

Respirology Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
A 70‐year‐old man with mediastinal lymphadenopathy and a right upper lobe nodule underwent simultaneous bronchoscopic evaluation using EBUS‐TBNA and balloon dilation for bronchoscope delivery (BDBD). EBUS‐TBNA confirmed small cell lung cancer in the mediastinal nodes, whereas BDBD enabled additional peripheral advancement of the thin bronchoscope from ...
