Radial-probe EBUS for the diagnosis of peripheral pulmonary lesions [PDF]

Jornal Brasileiro de Pneumologia, 2016
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.

Application of Interventional Bronchoscopy in Pulmonary Peripheral Lesions

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.

Possible Use of Linear Echobronchoscope for Diagnosis of Peripheral Pulmonary Nodules [PDF]

Diagnostics, 2023
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.

Bronchial Physiological Saline Injection to Visualize Peripheral Pulmonary Lesions in Ultrathin Bronchoscopy [PDF]

Diagnostics
Background: During bronchial lavage, the lumen can be viewed better by injecting physiological saline into the bronchus. This study aimed to investigate the effect of injecting physiological saline into the bronchus while directly observing the bronchial

Advances of Electromagnetic Navigation Bronchoscopyfor Peripheral Pulmonary Lesions

Chinese Journal of Lung Cancer, 2020
The incidence of peripheral pulmonary lesions (PPLs) is growing following the adoption of lung cancer screening by low-dose chest CT. The diagnosis and treatment of pulmonary nodules is one of the most difficult problems.

Advancements in navigational bronchoscopy for peripheral pulmonary lesions: A review with special focus on virtual bronchoscopic navigation

Frontiers in Medicine, 2022
Lung cancer is often diagnosed at an advanced stage and is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Low-dose computed tomography for lung cancer screening has increased the incidence of peripheral pulmonary lesions.

Pilot study of archimedes virtual bronchoscopic navigation system-guided biopsy to diagnose lung nodules in children

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2023
BackgroundPeripheral pulmonary lesions are uncommon in children. Bronchoscopy is a minimal invasive method to obtain a diagnostic lung biopsy. However, due to the lack of effective guidance methods, the diagnostic efficacy of transbronchial lung biopsy ...

Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound in Distinguishing between Malignant and Benign Peripheral Pulmonary Consolidations: The Debated Utility of the Contrast Enhancement Arrival Time

Diagnostics, 2023
Background. Limited studies and observations conducted on a too small number of patients prevent determining the actual clinical utility of pulmonary contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS).
