Radial Probe Endobronchial Ultrasound and Novel Navigation Biopsy Techniques

Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2014
Peripheral pulmonary lesions are an increasingly common finding in clinical practice. While many nodules are followed with radiographic surveillance, some may require biopsy. Conventional bronchoscopy with transbronchial lung biopsy has traditionally performed poorly for small, peripheral lesions, and transthoracic needle aspiration with computed ...

Fluoroscopic-Guided Radial Endobronchial Ultrasound Without Guide Sheath for Peripheral Pulmonary Lesions: A Safe and Efficient Combination

open access: yesArchivos De Bronconeumologia, 2015
Several guidelines recommend computed tomography scans for populations with high-risk for lung cancer. The number of individuals evaluated for peripheral pulmonary lesions (PPL) will probably increase, and with it non-surgical biopsies.

Linear and Radial Endobronchial Ultrasound in Diagnosis and Staging of Lung Cancer

Expert Review of Medical Devices, 2013
Endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS) in recent years has become a routine diagnostic procedure in bronchology. Linear EBUS shows high diagnostic yield in evaluation of mediastinal lymph nodes. It is mainly used for nodal evaluation in lung cancer, but has also proven to be efficient in diagnostic evaluation of mediastinal masses.

Guidance system development for radial-probe endobronchial ultrasound bronchoscopy

Medical Imaging 2019: Image-Guided Procedures, Robotic Interventions, and Modeling, 2019
For peripheral pulmonary lesion diagnosis, surgical thoracoscopy and percutaneous needle biopsy are common invasive options, but entail significant risks; e.g., percutaneous biopsy carries a 15% pneumothorax rate and risk of other complications. The development of new bronchoscopic devices, such as radial-probe endobronchial ultrasound (RP-EBUS ...
