Bronchoscope Tip Localization With Learned Airway Constraints and an Open Source Simulator

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
BronchoLoc addresses feature‐poor bronchoscopic imaging by combining monocular video with a preoperative CT graph to estimate 3D camera location. A local tracker identifies candidate branches, while a sequence‐aware global module refines the trajectory. Demonstrating sub‐centimeter accuracy across synthetic and phantom datasets, this framework advances

Variable proficiency attainment following virtual reality cataract training: Implications for a mastery learning approach

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Virtual reality simulation (VRS)‐based training is widely used to prepare novice cataract surgeons, yet unstandardized training regimens result in variable competence at the transition to surgery. In many settings, training follows a directed self‐regulated learning approach, where progression is based on self‐assessed competence.

Economic value and clinical role of minimally invasive, biopsy‐based diagnostics in non‐small cell lung cancer

Cancer Cytopathology, Volume 134, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Background Precision oncology requires diagnostic sampling that delivers molecularly actionable material quickly and safely. In non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), core‐needle biopsy (CNB) remains common. Yet fine‐needle aspiration (FNA) has re‐emerged with rapid on‐site evaluation (ROSE), optimized cell blocks, and next‐generation sequencing.

Bronchoscopy Robot with Enhanced Flexibility and Stability via Multi‐Segment Variable Stiffness Catheter

Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 8, Issue 9, September 2026.
This work presents a magnetic bronchoscopy robot with a novel multi‐segment variable stiffness catheter. This catheter can not only move flexibly in the narrow bronchi but also harden according to the need to provide support. Combined with remote wireless magnetic field drive, it provides a more precise and effective solution for biopsy of deep lung ...

Robotic Left Upper Lobe Posterior Segmentectomy Using ICG and Navigational Bronchoscopy

, 2018
The use of the robotics in thoracic surgery, including segmentectomy, has increased substantially over the last decade. In the authors’ experience, for small pulmonary nodules, pulmonary segmentectomy allows for a safe and oncologically effective ...

Diagnosis of Synchronous Primary Lung Cancers Using EBUS‐TBNA and BDBD‐Assisted Transbronchial Biopsy During a Single Bronchoscopic Procedure: A Case Report

Respirology Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
A 70‐year‐old man with mediastinal lymphadenopathy and a right upper lobe nodule underwent simultaneous bronchoscopic evaluation using EBUS‐TBNA and balloon dilation for bronchoscope delivery (BDBD). EBUS‐TBNA confirmed small cell lung cancer in the mediastinal nodes, whereas BDBD enabled additional peripheral advancement of the thin bronchoscope from ...

Transbronchial Access of Solitary Pulmonary Nodules Without Bronchus Sign Using a Novel Puncture Dilatation Catheter: Initial Feasibility Experience

Respirology Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
This case series reports the initial clinical experience using a novel, single‐use transbronchial puncture dilatation catheter compatible with thin bronchoscopes. In two distinct cases involving a lung nodule with negative bronchus sign and a stenotic airway, the device successfully facilitated ‘off‐road’ access and radial EBUS verification, enabling ...

Kinomic profiling of electromagnetic navigational bronchoscopy specimens: a new approach for personalized medicine. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Researchers are currently seeking relevant lung cancer biomarkers in order to make informed decisions regarding therapeutic selection for patients in so-called "precision medicine." However, there are challenges to obtaining adequate lung cancer tissue ...

Rescue Diagnosis of Upper‐Lobar Station 12U Lymph Nodes Using the Thin Convex‐Probe EBUS Bronchoscope (BF‐UCP190F): A Report of Two Cases

Respirology Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
When conventional bronchoscopic forceps biopsy is non‐diagnostic, the TCP‐EBUS bronchoscope (BF‐UCP190F) enables real‐time EBUS‐TBNA of upper‐lobar station 12 lymph node via B3. This rescue approach establishes the definitive pathological diagnosis and directly guides subsequent treatment, highlighting the potential of TCP‐EBUS to expand the diagnostic
