“…The EBUS-GS probe uses ultrasonic waves that penetrate and are absorbed, reflected, and scattered by different tissues, and these waves form the acoustic spectrum image of the tissue structure, which is more characteristic. Because of the unique structure of bronchial trees, the clinical application of EBUS-GS leads to the “visualization” of peripheral lung lesions, which greatly improves the accuracy of biopsy tissue sampling, thus reducing the blindness of routine blind examinations and promoting the improvement of the positive diagnosis rate of peripheral lung cancer[ 14 ]. It can also allow to judge the blood supply, estimate the blood vessel size, and calculate the distance between vessels.…”

BACKGROUND Peripheral lung cancer poses a substantial harm to human health, and it is easy to become exacerbated, potentially threatening the life and safety of patients AIM To assess the value of virtual bronchoscopic navigation (VBN) combined with transbronchial ultrasound-guided sheath-guided (EBUS-GS) exploration in the diagnosis of peripheral lung cancer. METHODS A total of 236 patients with peripheral lung cancer (nodule diameter range, 8-30 mm; diagnosed using high-resolution computed tomography) were selected from three centers between October 2018 and December 2019. Patients who underwent EBUS-GS exploration alone were included in a control group, and those who received VBN in combination with EBUS-GS exploration were included in an observation group. The diagnostic rate and total operating time of different subgroups of the two groups were compared, and the time needed to determine the lesion was recorded. RESULTS There were no significant differences in diagnosis rate or total operation time between the two groups ( P > 0.05), and the time needed to determine the lesion in the observation group was less than that of the control group ( P < 0.05). CONCLUSION The combined use of VBN and EBUS-GS exploration technology has little effect on the diagnosis rate and total operation time of peripheral lung cancer, but it significantly shortens the time needed to determine the lesion and is a valuable diagnostic method.

Wedge resection of lung cancer using a radiofrequency identification (RFID) marking system was first reported in 2020 and has been increasingly used since. The case described here involved a 67-year-old female patient with Parkinson's disease with an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 3. Chest computed tomography showed an irregular 21-mm nodule in the left lung S 1+2 , contacting the interlobar pleura. During bronchoscopic lung biopsy, the guide sheath tip was slipped into the end of the left B 1+2 ciiα. The broken tip was 15 mm ventrally to the nodule and was judged difficult to palpate intraoperatively because it was 20 mm from the visceral pleura. To obtain accurate positional information during surgery, an RFID tag was placed near the guide sheath tip on the mediastinal side of B 1+2 ciiβ. After localization using a detection probe, wedge pulmonary resection was performed including both the cancer nodule and guide sheath tip. In short, using an RFID marking system, we could accurately remove a broken guide sheath tip and a lung cancer nodule.
