Endobronchial Ultrasound-Guided Transbronchial Needle Aspiration for the Diagnosis of Intrapulmonary Lesions

Intrapulmonary lesions not assessable by conventional bronchoscopic procedures can easily be assessed and diagnosed by EBUS-TBNA as long as it is within the reach of the EBUS-TBNA scope. EBUS-TBNA is a real-time procedure with a high yield which can be applied for the diagnosis of lung tumors.
