电磁导航支气管镜在外周肺病变诊治中的临床应用进展

The incidence of peripheral pulmonary lesions (PPLs) is growing following the adoption of lung cancer screening by low-dose chest CT. The diagnosis and treatment of pulmonary nodules is one of the most difficult problems. Based on the electromagnetic positioning technology, the electromagnetic navigation bronchoscope is guided to the pulmonary nodules for biopsy or treatment, providing a new minimally invasive diagnosis and treatment method for suspicious lung lesions. This paper provides an overview of the current status and progress of electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy in the diagnosis and treatment of peripheral pulmonary diseases.
