NCT02484066

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility, efficacy and safety of transbronchial lung biopsy (TBLB) and bronchial brushing by using virtual bronchoscopic navigation (VBN) combined with endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS) and a Guide Sheath (GS) for the diagnosis of peripheral pulmonary lesions (PPLs) without radiographic fluoroscopy.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The difference of diagnostic value of VBN-EBUS-GS-TBLB with fluoroscopy as compared to VBN-EBUS-GS-TBLB

    The diagnostic value means sensitivity and specificity in two groups

    one year

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • The difference of operation time of VBN-EBUS-GS-TBLB with fluoroscopy as compared to VBN-EBUS-GS-TBLB

    one year

  • The difference of complications of VBN-EBUS-GS-TBLB with fluoroscopy as compared to VBN-EBUS-GS-TBLB

    one year

Study Arms (2)

VBN-EBUS-GS group

EXPERIMENTAL

Fluoroscopy are not used in this group. EBUS and GS are inserted into bronchi in the assistance of VBN. The EBUS probe and GS are confirmed to reach the lesion by EBUS images alone, cytologic and pathologic specimens are obtained without fluoroscopic guidance.

Device: VBNDevice: EBUS-GS

VBN-EBUS-GS-X-ray group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

EBUS and GS are inserted into bronchi in the assistance of VBN. The EBUS probe and GS are confirmed to reach the lesion by EBUS images and radiograph fluoroscopy, cytologic and pathologic specimens are obtained with fluoroscopic guidance.

Device: VBNDevice: EBUS-GSDevice: X-ray

Interventions

VBNDEVICE

VBN is carried out by a VBN software(DirectPath; Olympus, Japan) which can automatically create virtual bronchoscopic images.

VBN-EBUS-GS groupVBN-EBUS-GS-X-ray group
EBUS-GSDEVICE

EBUS is performed using an endoscope ultrasound system , which is equipped with a 20-MHz mechanical radial-type probe (UM-S20-17S;Olympus) with an external diameter of 1.4 mm and a GS (K-201; Olympus).

VBN-EBUS-GS groupVBN-EBUS-GS-X-ray group
X-rayDEVICE

The radiograph fluoroscopy are performed when the probe and GS are confirmed to reach the lesion by EBUS images ,cytologic and pathologic specimens are obtained under fluoroscopic guidance.

VBN-EBUS-GS-X-ray group

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may not qualify if:

  • Absence of bronchus leading to or adjacent to the lesion from CT scan
  • Refusal of participation
  • Severe cardiopulmonary dysfunction and other indications that can't receive bronchoscopy
  • Presence of concomitant endobronchial lesion during the brochoscopy procerdure
