04:03 PM Abstract No. 293 Cone-beam CT with augmented fluoroscopy: a novel approach for navigating airways and guiding transbronchial interventions

Transbronchial microwave (MW) ablation is a recently developed bronchoscopic therapy for small pulmonary malignancies. X-ray based guidance techniques would allow interventional radiologists to perform the procedure. The purpose of this study was to assess the feasibility and target accuracy of using cone-beam CT (CBCT) with augmented fluoroscopy to navigate airways.
