Lost in Navigation: A Simplified CT-Based Airway Mapping Method for Ultrathin Navigational Bronchoscopy [PDF]
J Clin MedAccurate navigation within the bronchial tree is essential for successful bronchoscopic sampling of peripheral pulmonary lesions. It fundamentally comprises a series of di/trichotomous decisions as the bronchoscope is advanced through sequential airway ...
