Competence in navigation and guided transbronchial biopsy for peripheral pulmonary lesions [PDF]

open access: yesPanminerva Medica, 2019
Options for non-surgical tissue diagnosis of the peripheral nodule include CT scan-guided TTNA, fluoroscopy-guided bronchoscopy, radial endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS), electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy (ENB), and virtual bronchoscopy navigation (VBN). For physicians who choose to pursue non-surgical biopsy, the decision to perform CT scan-guided

Clinical Characteristics and Concordance of Anti‐MDA5 Antibodies: A Multicenter Australian Study

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective In Australia, anti‐MDA5 antibodies are exclusively tested by a line immunoblot assay (LIA). The clinical concordance of an LIA‐positive anti‐MDA5 result is unclear. We aimed to describe the clinical features and determine the clinical concordance of patients with anti‐MDA5 antibodies. Methods Electronic records of a multisite cohort (patients

[Application of Interventional Bronchoscopy in Pulmonary Peripheral Lesions].

open access: yesZhongguo fei ai za zhi = Chinese journal of lung cancer, 2016
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. A low cure rate of lung cancer is not only attributed to intrinsic aggressive biological behavior, but also little attention to lung cancer screening. With lung screening methods continuous progress, peripheral pulmonary lesions detection rate gradually increased.

Microvascular Damage Is Associated With Carotid Wall Structural Changes in Systemic Sclerosis: A Capillaroscopy and Ultrasound‐Based Observational Study

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is characterized by cardiovascular risk excess not fully explained by traditional factors. Whether the severity of microvascular damage correlates with structural subclinical atherosclerosis remains unclear. We investigated the relationship between nailfold videocapillaroscopy (NVC) abnormalities and carotid ...

Gallium-67 as a diagnostic tool in the evaluation of peripheral pulmonary lesions [PDF]

open access: yesThorax, 1974
le Roux, B. T., and Houlder, A. E. (1974). Thorax , 29 , 355-358. Gallium-67 as a diagnostic tool in the evaluation of peripheral pulmonary lesions. While Gallium-67 shows a high affinity for primary pulmonary tumours, benign pulmonary lesions also concentrate the isotope.
