Abstract
Interventional pulmonology (IP) is a relatively new field that uses endoscopy and other technologies for both the diagnosis and treatment of pulmonary and thoracic conditions. IP is a continually developing field driven by clinical need as well as technological and therapeutic innovation. Developments in IP have increased both the efficacy and breadth of procedures that may be encountered by radiologists on periprocedural and postprocedural imaging. In this article, we will describe commonly performed IP procedures, with a focus on relevant imaging implications for radiologists.
