Abstract
Thin convex probe EBUS has greater accessibility to peripheral airways in human lungs and is capable of sampling segmental lymph nodes using the aspiration needle. That will allow for more precise assessment of N1 nodes and, possibly, intrapulmonary lesions normally inaccessible to the conventional convex probe EBUS.
