Endoscopic Studies I: Bronchoscopy and Thoracoscopy01:30

Endoscopic Studies I: Bronchoscopy and Thoracoscopy

Endoscopy is a non-surgical medical technique used to examine a person's internal organs and vessels. This lesson will focus on two types of endoscopic studies: bronchoscopy and thoracoscopy.
Bronchoscopy
Description
Bronchoscopy is a procedure that involves direct visualization of the larynx, trachea, and bronchi for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. A flexible fiber optic or rigid bronchoscope is used to carry out the procedure. The fiber-optic bronchoscope is more frequently used due to...

Endoscopic Procedures I: Esophagogastroduodenoscopy

An Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) is a diagnostic procedure in which an endoscopist uses a flexible, lighted endoscope to visualize the upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract. The procedure includes visualizing the oropharynx, esophagus, stomach, and the first part of the small intestine, the duodenum.
During an EGD, the endoscope can be used to:

Area of Science:

  • Pulmonology
  • Medical Technology

Background:

  • Peripheral pulmonary lesions pose diagnostic challenges.
  • Traditional bronchoscopy has limitations in reaching distal targets.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the Electromagnetic Navigation Bronchoscopy (ENB) procedure.
  • To review the literature on ENB.
  • To compare ENB with existing biopsy techniques.

Main Methods:

  • Electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy (ENB) utilizes a system similar to GPS for navigation.
  • ENB allows for biopsy of peripheral lung lesions.
  • Potential applications include marking nodules and placing markers for radiotherapy.

Main Results:

  • ENB promises accurate navigation to peripheral pulmonary targets.
  • Published literature on ENB's efficacy is under review.
  • Comparison with existing techniques is discussed.

Conclusions:

  • ENB is a promising new technique for diagnosing and treating peripheral lung lesions.
  • Challenges for widespread implementation of ENB are outlined.
