Proof of concept: Shape-sensing robotic-assisted bronchoscopy performed under moderate sedation
Respiratory Medicine Case Reports, 2023 We describe a first reported case of shape-sensing robotic-assisted bronchoscopy using ION-intuitive platform done successfully under moderate sedation. A 76-year-old woman was found to have a right upper lobe mass measuring 3 × 2.9 cm.

The role of navigation bronchoscopy in the workup of lung lesions in lung transplant-eligible patients: A single-center case series [PDF]
JHLT OpenIntroduction: Lung transplantation (LTx) eligibility assessment may reveal lung lesions suspicious for malignancy. Histological evaluation of these lesions may provide clarity regarding their origin and prevent delays in transplant eligibility decisions.
