Transbronchial Diagnosis of A Pulmonary Peripheral Small Lesion Using an Ultrathin Bronchoscope with Virtual Bronchoscopic Navigation

Abstract:We report a patient with a pulmonary peripheral small lesion that was diagnosed using an ultrathin bronchoscope with virtual bronchoscopic (VB) navigation. In a 83-year-old man with pulmonary emphysema, chest computed tomography (CT) revealed a small lesion (18 × 14 mm) in the periphery of
