Abstract: Abstract The diagnosis of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a complex process that requires the multidisciplinary integration of clinical, radiological, and histological variables. Due to its diagnostic yield, surgical lung biopsy has been the recommended… read more here.

Abstract: INTRODUCTION In the diagnostic approach to interstitial lung disease (ILD), the use of transbronchial cryobiopsy (TBC) may offer an alternative to surgical lung biopsy (SLB). We report the diagnostic effectiveness and the safety of TBC… read more here.

DOI: 10.1055/a-2002-4972
Abstract: We present the case of a patient with severe complications from mediastinal bleeding after endosonographically guided transbronchial cryobiopsy (EBUS-TBKB) with suspected advanced lymphoma. The EBUS-TBKB is a new effective examination method in interventional pneumology for… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000015240
Abstract: Rationale: Isolated pulmonary Langerhans cell histiocytosis (PLCH) is rare in adults. The gold standard diagnosis requires surgical lung biopsy. However, few cases have been diagnosed with transbronchial cryobiopsy (TBCB) sampling in the early stages of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1183/13993003.01942-2022
Abstract: Development of transbronchial lung cryobiopsy (TBLC) technology was inspired by the Joule–Thomson principle, where rapid freezing occurs with the sudden expansion of certain gases as they move from a high-pressure to a low-pressure environment. Harnessing… read more here.

DOI: 10.21037/jtd.2019.04.59
Abstract: Transbronchial cryobiopsy is useful for diagnosing diffuse parenchymal lung diseases, as well as localized lung lesions (1-5). It provides larger and higher quality specimens without crush artifacts compared to those obtained by conventional biopsy forceps… read more here.
