Robotic-Assisted Bronchoscopy and Pulmonary Nodules Due to Atypical Infections in Coccidioidomycosis Endemic Area [PDF]
Background: Although robotic-assisted bronchoscopy (RAB) primarily aims to diagnose early stage lung cancer, many pulmonary nodules stem from benign causes, including atypical infections (ie, Coccidioides species, Aspergillus species, nontuberculous ...
