Early acute rejection (AR) following lung transplantation can be effectively detected and graded by transbronchial biopsy (TBB) via bronchoscopy, with a low rate of pneumothorax (PX) complication, ...

Considering that fluorescence inspection simply uses light of a different wavelength and that bronchial biopsy attainment is the same as in conventional bronchoscopy, there is no increase in risk ...

The type of biopsy that is done will depend on the location of the nodule, the size, and other factors but may include a needle biopsy, a biopsy during bronchoscopy, or a biopsy during surgery. A ...

Biopsy, brushing and washing were usually performed during the procedure ... Complications occurred in 16 (3.3%) patients, including 15 with moderate bleeding (grade 2) during bronchoscopy without ...

Although typically performed with image-guided transthoracic biopsy, the advent of shape-sensing robotic-assisted bronchoscopy (ssRAB) provides an alternative diagnostic procedure for this subtype of ...

What is a liver biopsy? A liver biopsy is a test used to diagnose liver conditions. Tissue samples are removed from your liver and checked under a microscope for signs of damage or disease. A liver ...
