Abstract
Introduction: Cone beam computed tomography-guided navigation bronchoscopy (CBCT-NB) with augmented fluoroscopy (AF) guidance represents a minimally invasive endobronchial technique for diagnosing small, peripheral pulmonary lesions. This approach is characterized by its high diagnostic accuracy and low complication risk. Current pilot trials are exploring the application of localized therapies using this innovative approach. This report aims to provide a detailed procedural guide for performing CBCT-NB with AF guidance as the only tool for navigation and image guided biopsy.
Methods: We outline the procedural steps involved in the CBCT-NB procedure for diagnosing peripheral pulmonary lesions, supported by specific intra-procedural clinical video footage. The steps include (1) preprocedural considerations, (2) a detailed procedural workflow encompassing navigation to the target lesion, (3) position confirmation and tissue acquisition, and (4) postprocedural follow-up.
Conclusion: CBCT-NB with AF guidance is a safe and precise stand-alone navigation modality that offers high-resolution real-time 3D imaging, enhancing the diagnosis and potential treatment of peripheral pulmonary nodules.
期刊介绍:
''Respiration'' brings together the results of both clinical and experimental investigations on all aspects of the respiratory system in health and disease. Clinical improvements in the diagnosis and treatment of chest and lung diseases are covered, as are the latest findings in physiology, biochemistry, pathology, immunology and pharmacology. The journal includes classic features such as editorials that accompany original articles in clinical and basic science research, reviews and letters to the editor. Further sections are: Technical Notes, The Eye Catcher, What’s Your Diagnosis?, The Opinion Corner, New Drugs in Respiratory Medicine, New Insights from Clinical Practice and Guidelines. ''Respiration'' is the official journal of the Swiss Society for Pneumology (SGP) and also home to the European Association for Bronchology and Interventional Pulmonology (EABIP), which occupies a dedicated section on Interventional Pulmonology in the journal. This modern mix of different features and a stringent peer-review process by a dedicated editorial board make ''Respiration'' a complete guide to progress in thoracic medicine.
