Abstract Background and Objective Ultrathin bronchoscopy aids in the diagnosis of
peripheral pulmonary lesions. However, both the working channel and the specimens are …

Background Cryobiopsy is an established technique that yields larger and higher-quality
samples than does a forceps biopsy. However, it remains underutilised in the diagnosis of …

Background: Specimens from transbronchial lung biopsies lack sufficient quality due to
crush artifact and are generally too small for diagnosis of diffuse lung diseases. Flexible …

Background: Transbronchial cryobiopsy enables high-quality sample collection around the
probe tip. Meanwhile, existing cryoprobes have less flexibility and a higher risk of bleeding …

Background: The addition of cryobiopsy to conventional biopsy methods improves the
diagnostic yield of peripheral pulmonary lesions. Moreover, cryobiopsy with a guide sheath …

Peripheral lung lesions are sometimes difficult to reach even with endobronchial ultrasound
(EBUS) and insufficient material is often obtained by transbronchial forceps biopsy …

Background/Aim: This study aimed to compare the efficacies of cryobiopsy and forceps
biopsy for peripheral lung cancer detection. Patients and Methods: A retrospective review of …

Purpose of the research: transbronchial lung cryobiopsy has been recently accepted as a
valid and less invasive alternative to surgical lung biopsy. The purpose of this randomized …

Background Although in some cases clinical and radiographic features may be sufficient to
establish a diagnosis of diffuse parenchymal lung disease (DPLD), surgical lung biopsy is …

Objectives Transbronchial cryobiopsy (TBCB) is a novel technique for the diagnosis of
peripheral lung lesions (PLLs). We aim to evaluate the clinical outcomes of TBCB using a …
