Electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy versus virtual bronchoscopy navigation for improving the diagnosis of peripheral lung lesions: analysis of the predictors of successful diagnosis

Purpose To investigate if electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy (ENB) improves the diagnostic yield for peripheral lung lesions from that achieved by virtual bronchoscopy navigation (VBN). Methods This retrospective study compared the results of 100 ENB-transbronchial lung biopsies (TBLBs) with th...

Zusammenfassung:Purpose To investigate if electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy (ENB) improves the diagnostic yield for peripheral lung lesions from that achieved by virtual bronchoscopy navigation (VBN). Methods This retrospective study compared the results of 100 ENB-transbronchial lung biopsies (TBLBs) with those of 50 VBN-TBLBs at a single institution. Results ENB improved the diagnostic yield significantly compared with VBN (64.0% for 19.4 ± 9.0 mm tumors vs. 46.0% for 27.6 ± 8.9 mm tumors; p
