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 ...

Improved diagnostic yield for lung nodules with digital tomosynthesis‐corrected navigational bronchoscopy: Initial experience with a novel adjunct

Respirology (Carlton South. Print), 2020
The diagnostic yield of electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy (ENB) is inferior to that of computed tomography (CT)‐guided needle biopsy for pulmonary nodules.

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 ...

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

Intraoperative Contrast‐Enhanced Ultrasonography (Io‐CEUS) to Detect Missed Lung Nodules During Robot‐Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery

Thoracic Cancer, Volume 17, Issue 17, September 2026.
During robotic thoracic surgery, Intraoperative Ultrasound is the surgeon's finger to detect small nodule. ABSTRACT Herein, we reported the use of Intraoperative‐Contrast Enhanced Ultrasonography (Io‐CEUS) during Robotic Assisted Thoracic Surgery (RATS) for identification of malignant lung nodule that was missed during previous operation. Pre‐operative

An update on the role of advanced diagnostic bronchoscopy in the evaluation and staging of lung cancer

Therapeutic Advances in Respiratory Disease, 2017
Lung cancer remains a common and deadly disease. Many modalities are available to the bronchoscopist to evaluate and stage lung cancer. We review the role of bronchoscopy in the staging of the mediastinum with convex endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS) and ...

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 ...

Comparing Complications Between Shape‐Sensing Robotic‐Assisted Bronchoscopy and Trans‐Thoracic Needle Pulmonary Biopsy Approaches: Insights From a Large Nationally Representative Administrative Database

Thoracic Cancer, Volume 17, Issue 13, July 2026.
In this large‐scale database analysis, ssRAB demonstrated a better safety profile compared to TTNB. Superior safety combined with a potentially comparable performance and known advantages of bronchoscopy including concurrent staging support ssRAB as an optimal choice of biopsy for suspicious pulmonary lesions.
