    Area of Science:

    • Pulmonology
    • Medical Imaging
    • Cytopathology

    Context:

    • Diagnosing peripheral pulmonary lesions can be challenging with conventional bronchoscopy.
    • Fluoroscopic guidance is crucial for navigating beyond the reach of the bronchoscope.

    Purpose:

    • To describe a technique for obtaining cytologic and bacteriologic samples from peripheral pulmonary lesions.
    • To evaluate the safety, tolerability, and diagnostic yield of bronchial brushing under fluoroscopy.

    Summary:

    • Bronchial brushing involves passing a small brush through a bronchial catheter under fluoroscopy to collect tissue.
    • This method is effective for lesions inaccessible to standard bronchoscopes.
    • Samples are used for cytologic and bacteriologic analysis.
