No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to examine the usefulness of a balloon covered sheath as a guide sheath in endobronchial ultrasound guided transbronchial biopsy and bronchial brushing cytology for diagnosis of peripheral lung lesions

Conditions

  • Pulmonary Neoplasms
  • Solitary Pulmonary Nodules

Interventions

DEVICE

guide sheath

The guide sheath (GS) was originally the balloon covered sheath (MAJ-643R, external diameter 2.6mm) of the EBUS probe. The two ends of the balloon covered sheath were cut and trimmed. The EBUS probe was covered with guide sheath and then inserted through the working channel to the targeted bronchus.
