Key Points

To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy and procedural safety of radial probe endobronchial ultrasound using a guide sheath without fluoroscopy for peripheral pulmonary lesions.
Assessed radial probe endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial lung biopsy (RP-EBUS-TBLB) with a guide sheath performed without fluoroscopy.
Evaluated diagnostic yield and complication profiles in patients presenting with peripheral pulmonary lesions.
RP-EBUS-TBLB using a guide sheath without fluoroscopy demonstrated high diagnostic accuracy for peripheral pulmonary lesions.
The procedure eliminated patient and operator radiation exposure while maintaining acceptable complication rates.

Implication

Diagnostic study demonstrates high diagnostic accuracy without radiation exposure in peripheral pulmonary lesions, indicating a safe alternative to fluoroscopy-guided biopsy.

Abstract

RP-EBUS-TBLB using a GS without fluoroscopy is a highly accurate diagnostic method in diagnosing PPLs that does not involve radiation exposure and has acceptable complication rates.
