Recent advances in navigational platforms have led bronchoscopists to make major strides
in diagnostic interventions for pulmonary parenchymal lesions. Over the last decade …

The use and availability of diverse advanced X-ray based imaging and guidance systems in
the field of interventional pulmonology are rapidly growing. This popularity links inextricably …

Peripheral bronchoscopy with the use of thin/ultrathin bronchoscopes and radial-probe
endobronchial ultrasound (RP-EBUS) has been associated with a fair diagnostic yield …

Peripheral pulmonary lesions (PPLs) are frequent incidental findings in subjects when
performing chest radiographs or chest computed tomography (CT) scans. When a PPL is …

Background Most malignant peripheral pulmonary lesions (PPLs) are situated in the
peripheral region of the lung. Although the ultrathin bronchoscope (UTB) can access these …

Background Shape sensing robotic-assisted bronchoscopy (ssRAB) combined with radial
endobronchial ultrasound (r-EBUS) and cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) is a …

Bronchoscopes are continuously improving. Increasingly, thinner bronchoscopes with larger
working channels and better imaging quality are becoming available for clinical use …

Background: Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) and augmented fluoroscopy (AF),
in which intraprocedural CBCT data is fused with fluoroscopy, have been utilized as a novel …

Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) assisted bronchoscopy shows prospective
advantages in diagnosing peripheral pulmonary lesions (PPLs), but its diagnostic value and …

Background Identification of peripheral pulmonary nodules (PPNs) are becoming
increasingly common with modern imaging and lung cancer screening programs …
