Efficiency of Electromagnetic Navigation Bronchoscopy and Virtual Bronchoscopic Navigation

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2020
Image-guided bronchoscopy techniques have emerged as a means of improving pulmonary nodule biopsy yield. However comparisons of the diagnostic efficacy of electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy (ENB) and virtual bronchoscopic navigation (VBN) have not reached a consensus.

Navigation Bronchoscopy

Respiration, 2019
With the advent of lung cancer screening, and the increasingly frequent use of computed tomography (CT) scanning for investigating non-pulmonary pathology (for example CT coronary angiogram), the number of pulmonary nodules requiring further investigation has risen significantly.

Electromagnetic Navigational Bronchoscopy

2020
Pulmonary nodules, consolidations, and opacities in the pediatric population often require sampling to assess for infection, malignancy, or to support the diagnosis of inflammatory etiologies. Electromagnetic navigational bronchoscopy allows for the bronchoscope to reach further into the periphery of the lungs for biopsy.

Improved navigation for image-guided bronchoscopy

SPIE Proceedings, 2009
Past work has shown that guidance systems help improve both the navigation through airways and final biopsy of regions of interest via bronchoscopy. We have previously proposed an image-based bronchoscopic guidance system. The system, however, has three issues that arise during navigation: 1) sudden disorienting changes can occur in endoluminal views;

Electromagnetic Navigation during Flexible Bronchoscopy

Respiration, 2003
<i>Background:</i> Flexible bronchoscopy is routinely utilized in the diagnosis and treatment of various lung diseases. Nondiagnostic bronchoscopy leads to more invasive interventions, such as transthoracic needle aspiration, mediastinoscopy or even thoracotomy.

A new visualization method for navigated bronchoscopy

Minimally Invasive Therapy & Allied Technologies, 2017
In flexible endoscopy techniques, such as bronchoscopy, there is often a challenge visualizing the path from start to target based on preoperative data and accessing these during the procedure. An example of this is visualizing only the inside of central airways in bronchoscopy. Virtual bronchoscopy (VB) does not meet the pulmonologist's need to detect,

Advanced navigation tools for virtual bronchoscopy

SPIE Proceedings, 2004
In the framework of computer-aided diagnosis, pulmonary airway investigation based on multi-detector computerized tomography (MDCT) requires the development of specific tools for data interaction and analysis. The 3D segmentation of the bronchial tree provides radiologists with appropriate examination modalities such as CT bronchography, for a global ...

Electromagnetic Navigational Bronchoscopy: A Surgeon’s Perspective

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2008
Diagnostic yield of flexible bronchoscopy is often limited by the size and location of the lesion of interest. Novel technologies have evolved that can improve the accuracy and expand the applicability of flexible bronchoscopy in rendering a tissue diagnosis for pulmonary nodules.

Electromagnetic Navigation Bronchoscopy

2013
Electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy (ENB) has been in continuous evolution since its introduction in 2004. The basic components of this global positioning system-like technology include a magnetic field generator, a sensor and computer integration, and a computed tomography scan used as a three-dimensional map.

Electromagnetic Navigation Bronchoscopy

The Bangkok Medical Journal, 2017
OBJECTIVE: Suspicious pulmonary nodules have become a more common finding since the advent of CT scans as a screening method for lung cancer. The challenge is to find a safer, practical and more accurate way to diagnose peripheral nodules and lesions while minimizing harm to the patient.
