Dual-correction robotic bronchoscopy system with ultra-thin catheter for diagnosing challenging peripheral pulmonary nodules: A multi-centre prospective trial
This prospective multi-centre study introduced the concept of C-PPN, establishing a valuable reference for subsequent research. Moreover, the novel system featuring ultra-thin catheters demonstrated superior performance, achieving 100% navigation success, 84.2% diagnostic yield and 0 pneumothorax, in such nodules without radiation guidance.
