Combined pleuroscopy and endobronchial ultrasound for diagnosis and staging of suspected lung cancer

Respiratory Medicine Case Reports, 2018
The standard approach to staging of lung cancer in patients with pleural effusion (clinical M1a) is thoracentesis followed by pleural biopsies if the cytologic analysis is negative. If pleural biopsy findings are negative, endobronchial ultrasound-guided

Endobronchial ultrasound in therapeutic bronchoscopy [PDF]

European Respiratory Journal, 2002
Endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS) has been introduced as an adjunct to diagnostic bronchoscopy as it allows evaluation of the submucosal and parabronchial structures. Its use in therapeutic bronchoscopy has not been assessed. A large observational study of the value of EBUS in therapeutic bronchoscopy is presented here.From January 1998–January 2001 all ...

Project for Universal Management of Airways: guidelines for tracheal extubation

Anaesthesia, EarlyView.
Summary Introduction Risk evaluation, strategy formulation and preparation are important to decreasing the incidence of adverse events associated with tracheal extubation. The focus of this guideline is tracheal extubation, but many of the principles outlined are relevant to all forms of discontinuation of airway management (tracheal extubation ...

Five‐Year Trends in Biomarker Testing and Targeted Therapy for NSCLC: A Patient‐Initiated Nationwide Survey in Japan

Cancer Science, EarlyView.
This nationwide survey reveals that comprehensive multigene testing for advanced NSCLC has rapidly expanded in Japan, steadily increasing the use of targeted therapies for rare oncogenic drivers. Despite these diagnostic advancements, approximately 30% of patients consistently remain untested, highlighting a persistent clinical gap in real‐world ...

Clinical utility of artificial intelligence–augmented endobronchial ultrasound elastography in lymph node staging for lung cancerCentral MessagePerspective

JTCVS Techniques
Objective: Endobronchial ultrasound elastography produces a color map of mediastinal lymph nodes, with the color blue (level 60) indicating stiffness. Our pilot study demonstrated that predominantly blue lymph nodes, with a stiffness area ratio greater ...

Improving timeliness of lung cancer care through a rapid assessment clinic

Internal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Early diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer improve survival. Guidelines from Australia and worldwide stipulate timeframes of care from referral. The Rapid Lung Assessment Clinic (RLAC) was established to fast‐track the diagnostic and treatment pathway, with a subsequent quality improvement initiative based on the initial analysis ...

Endobronchial Ultrasound Guided Transbronchial Needle Aspiration

Journal of Nepal Health Research Council, 2018
Evaluation of mediastinal lymphadenopathy is often challenging. Endobronchial Ultrasound (EBUS) is a novel technique which provides real time sonographic guidance during Transbronchial Needle Aspiration (TBNA) from mediastinal and hilar lesions.

Preanalytical variables affect predictive immunohistochemical biomarker testing in non–small cell lung carcinoma cytology specimens

Cancer Cytopathology, Volume 134, Issue 11, November 2026.
Abstract Background Several therapeutic targets for non–small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) rely on protein expression by immunohistochemistry (IHC). Most biomarkers are validated on formalin‐fixed, paraffin‐embedded (FFPE) tissue; however, cytologic specimens, including cell blocks (CBs), that are subject to preanalytical variables are increasingly used.

A Case of Mediastinal Abscess Diagnosed by Endoscopic Ultrasound

Respirology Case Reports
Endobronchial ultrasound‐guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS‐TBNA) plays an important role in the diagnosis of benign and malignant mediastinal lesions. However, it is mostly used for the biopsy of consolidated lesions and enlarged lymph nodes.
