Mediastinal “deep freeze”—transcarinal lymph node cryobiopsy
Background The diagnostic yield of endobronchial ultrasound‐transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS‐TBNA) from mediastinal lymph nodes ranges from 66%–89%. However, in many cases cytologic material is not sufficient for full molecular evaluation.

Radiation damping on cryoprobes
Radiation damping on 600 and 800 MHz cryoprobes was investigated. The phase angle β between a vector 90° phase shifted to the precessing magnetization and the rf field induced in the coil was found to depend markedly on whether an FID was being acquired or not.

Cryoprobe transbronchial lung biopsy with flexible bronchoscope using Arndt endobronchial blocker
Cryoprobe transbronchial lung biopsy (TBLB)/transbronchial lung cryobiopsy (TBLC) is increasingly being described as an alternative to surgical lung biopsy and provides larger lung biopsy samples as compared with conventional TBLB in patients with ...
