Assessing the feasibility of confocal laser endomicroscopy in solitary pulmonary nodules for different part of the lungs, using either 0.6 or 1.4 mm probes
BACKGROUND: Malignant solitary pulmonary nodules (SPN) have become more prevalent, with upper lobes predilection. Probe-based confocal laser endomicroscopy (pCLE) provides in-vivo imaging of SPN. However, the stiffness of the 1mm confocal probe (AlveoFlex) causes difficult accessibility to the upper...
