Endoscopic Technologies for Peripheral Pulmonary Lesions: From Diagnosis to Therapy

open access: yesLife, 2023
Peripheral pulmonary lesions (PPLs) are frequent incidental findings in subjects when performing chest radiographs or chest computed tomography (CT) scans. When a PPL is identified, it is necessary to proceed with a risk stratification based on the patient profile and the characteristics found on chest CT.

Comparative Effectiveness and Safety of Inebilizumab Versus Rituximab in AQP4‐IgG‐Positive NMOSD

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Rituximab (anti‐CD20, RTX) and inebilizumab (anti‐CD19, INE) represent B‐cell‐depleting therapies used for aquaporin‐4 antibody‐positive (AQP4‐IgG+) neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD); however, direct comparative evidence remains limited.

Artificial Intelligence in Systemic Sclerosis: Clinical Applications, Challenges, and Future Directions

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a rare autoimmune disease defined by immune dysregulation, vasculopathy, and progressive fibrosis of the skin and internal organs. Despite advances in care, major complications such as interstitial lung disease (ILD) and myocardial involvement remain the leading causes of morbidity and mortality.

Cone Beam Computed Tomography-Guided Navigation Bronchoscopy with Augmented Fluoroscopy for the Diagnosis of Peripheral Pulmonary Nodules: A Step-by-Step Guide

open access: yesRespiration
Introduction: Cone beam computed tomography-guided navigation bronchoscopy (CBCT-NB) with augmented fluoroscopy (AF) guidance represents a minimally invasive endobronchial technique for diagnosing small, peripheral pulmonary lesions.

Case Report: Contrast-enhanced ultrasonography for evaluating a newly detected contralateral pulmonary lesion during non-small cell lung cancer chemoimmunotherapy

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
BackgroundNew pulmonary lesions arising during chemoimmunotherapy for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) pose a common diagnostic dilemma because they may reflect tumor progression, infection, treatment-related inflammation, or other benign processes ...

Clinical outcomes of radial probe endobronchial ultrasound using a guide sheath for diagnosis of peripheral lung lesions in patients with pulmonary emphysema

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2019
Background Generally, structural destruction of lung parenchyma, such as pulmonary emphysema, is considered to be related to the low diagnostic yields and high complication rates of lung biopsies of peripheral lung lesions.

Use of Ultrathin Bronchoscope on a Need Basis Improves Diagnostic Yield of Difficult-to-Approach Pulmonary Lesions

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2020
There are cases of peripheral lung nodules that are difficult to approach despite using ancillary diagnostic devices during multimodal bronchoscopy. The use of ultrathin bronchoscopes has shown superiority over standard thin bronchoscopes.
