Mini-probe cryobiopsy of peripheral pulmonary nodules with different targeting approaches – General considerations

Watch generic considerations on peripheral sampling. Rationales for cryobiopsy technique are highlighted, including safety profile and advantages over competing modalities (eccentric positioning, molecular target testing). Furthermore, contra-indications are highlighted. Construction of a bronchoscopy suite with … Continue reading Mini-probe cryobiopsy of peripheral pulmonary nodules with different targeting approaches – General considerations

Sampling of peripheral lung nodules with cryo – ERS Congress 2021

Before tailored immunotherapeutic therapy in patients with pulmonary malignancies, high quality peripheral sampling is in order. Learn about the latest results from Prof. Herth and how he diagnoses peripheral pulmonary lesions with modern cryotechnology.

Blood clot cryoextraction – ERS Congress 2021

How to rapidly restore airway patency in a patient with a blood cast of the tracheobronchial tree? See Prof. Hetzel discuss how to perform cryoextraction of these blood clots.

Transbronchial cryobiopsy with rigid intubation for ILD diagnosis using flexible single-use cryoprobe and ERBECRYO® 2

To diagnose ILD, the flexible single-use cryoprobe with 1.7 mm was advanced into the periphery until the pleura and pulled back for 1cm. Fluoroscopy control was used for the positioning. After freezing for 5 seconds, … Continue reading Transbronchial cryobiopsy with rigid intubation for ILD diagnosis using flexible single-use cryoprobe and ERBECRYO® 2
