Mediastinal cryobiopsy (Cryo-EBUS): SonoTip TopGain Needle Shows Us the Way

The Course is complimentary and will be held in the English language
Why join us?
This event aims to discuss the significance of Endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) in diagnosing non-small cell lung cancer and its pivotal role in mediastinal lymph node sampling. EBUS-TBNA is considered the gold standard, replacing mediastinoscopy, and is particularly valuable for diagnosing sarcoidosis. However, challenges arise in accurately diagnosing and subtyping lymphoma, prompting consideration of surgical biopsies in such cases. Technical factors, including needle gauge and on-site evaluation, influence EBUS-TBNA’s success, yet it may still miss granulomas in approximately 20% of sarcoidosis patients.
Advances in needle shapes, such as crown-cut or TBNB needles, aim to enhance diagnostic yield, while discussions about incorporating cryoprobes are ongoing. These technological evolutions mirror changes in endoscopic ultrasound diagnosis. Overall, the text emphasizes the evolving landscape of diagnostic approaches for mediastinal diseases, considering both the advantages and limitations of EBUS-TBNA and emerging technologies like TBNB needles and cryoprobes.
In this webinar, we would like to explain the differences in the needle shapes and methods, and would like to introduce the combination of TBNB and cryobiopsy as a new technique for specific diseases.
The webinar delivers insights into patient cases, offers a live discussion platform for your questions, will provide additional literature and ultimately shares first user experiences about the technique, potential hurdles, learning curve and how to get started.
