Simulator training for endobronchial ultrasound: a randomised controlled trial.
Endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) is very operator dependent and has a long learning curve. Simulation-based training might shorten the learning curve, and an assessment tool with solid validity evidence could ensure basic competency before unsupervised performance.A total of 16 respiratory physicians, without EBUS experience, were randomised to either...
متن کاملAffordable Ultrasound Training Simulator
Ultrasound diagnostic skills for medical students and professionals are becoming increasingly important as ultrasound technology has become more portable and effective, but the training to develop these skills is also very expensive due to cost of equipment and the requirement of a human subject. Our goal is to create an inexpensive computer-based augmented reality training simulator to supplem...

متن کاملTraining in and experience with endobronchial ultrasound.
BACKGROUND Diagnosing mediastinal and hilar lymphadenopathy and staging lung cancer with endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS)-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (TBNA) are on the rise, but uncertainty surrounds the optimal number of cases needed to achieve acceptable yields. OBJECTIVES To determine the threshold at which EBUS-TBNA reaches adequate yields among trainees and skilled bronchoscop...
متن کاملVirtual bronchoscopic navigation combined with endobronchial ultrasound to diagnose small peripheral pulmonary lesions: a randomised trial
BACKGROUND Bronchoscopy using endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS) can help to diagnose small peripheral pulmonary lesions. However, although biopsy sites can be confirmed, a bronchoscope cannot be guided in EBUS. Virtual bronchoscopic navigation (VBN) can guide a bronchoscope with virtual images, but its value has not been confirmed. METHODS This prospective multicentre study examines the value o...
