The efficacy and safety of radial endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial lung cryobiopsy in the diagnosis of lung disease
CONCLUSIONS: R-EBUS-guided TBLC is safe and effective for the diagnosis of lung diseases, including ILDs and other PPLs. R-EBUS can guide cryobiopsy and avoid the potential risk of severe bleeding as well as radiation exposure. The pathological diagnosis rate of ILDs is relatively low, and MDD plays an important role in the diagnosis of ILDs.PMID:38249930 | PMC:PMC10797348 | DOI:10.21037/jtd-23-1005
