Ultrathin bronchoscopy for diagnosing peripheral pulmonary lesions
Respiratory Investigation, 2023Bronchoscopes are continuously improving. Increasingly, thinner bronchoscopes with larger working channels and better imaging quality are becoming available for clinical use. Concurrently, useful ancillary devices have been developed, such as radial probe endobronchial ultrasound (rEBUS) and navigation devices.

Advanced bronchoscopy for the diagnosis of peripheral pulmonary lesions
Respiratory Investigation, 2016Bronchoscopy to examine peripheral pulmonary lesions is performed using a bronchoscope with an outer diameter of 5-6mm under fluoroscopy, but the diagnostic yield can be insufficient. Problems with transbronchial biopsy include a limited range of bronchoscope insertion, difficulty in guiding a bronchoscope and biopsy instruments to lesions, and ...

Advances in interventional diagnostic bronchoscopy for peripheral pulmonary lesions
Expert Review of Respiratory Medicine, 2019Introduction: The incidence of peripheral pulmonary lesions (PPLs) is growing following the adoption of lung cancer screening by low-dose chest CT. Although CT-guided transthoracic needle aspiration has been the standard method to diagnose PPLs, the field of interventional bronchoscopy is rapidly advancing to overcome complications of the transthoracic
