Radial-probe EBUS for the diagnosis of peripheral pulmonary lesions [PDF]
Objective: Conventional bronchoscopy has a low diagnostic yield for peripheral pulmonary lesions. Radial-probe EBUS employs a rotating ultrasound transducer at the end of a probe that is passed through the working channel of the bronchoscope.

Possible Use of Linear Echobronchoscope for Diagnosis of Peripheral Pulmonary Nodules
Echobronchoscope-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) is mainly used as the transbronchial approach to hilar/mediastinal lymph nodes or lesions, for diagnostic or staging purposes.
