Product Description:
...Since the introduction of the flexible bronchoscope by Dr. Ikeda in Japan, bronchoscopy has
been limited to the inspection of the mucosal surface of the airways. However, the airway wall
and parabronchial structures, such as lymph nodes, even though frequently of crucial
importance to the examination, still could not be visualized and evaluated. After decades of
conventional bronchoscopy, the introduction of endobronchial ultrasound was the first really
new imaging modality and it completely changed the endoscopists capabilities. The use of
EBUS can be a liberating experience, as the natural limitations of endoscopy are overcome and
the mediastinal structures are open for exploration, evaluation and guided biopsy
