Early Detection of Bronchial Lesions Using Lung Imaging Fluorescence Endoscope
نویسندگان
چکیده
The performance of the Lung Imaging Fluorescence Endoscope (LIFE) system was compared with conventional bronchoscopy in 158 patients: 68 patients with invasive cancer, 42 patients with abnormal sputum cytology findings (12 early cancer and 26 dysplasia), 17 cases with resected lung cancer and 31 smokers with symptoms. The respective results of conventional bronchoscopy and LIFE for detection of dysplasia were; sensitivity 52% and 90% (biopsy basis), 62% and 92% (patient basis). Fluorescence bronchoscopy may be an important adjunct to conventional bronchoscopy to improve the localization of subtle lesions of bronchus.

Early Localization of Bronchogenic Cancerous/Precancerous Lesions With Lung Imaging Fluorescence Endoscope
The result of the clinical trial using the lung imaging fluorescence endoscope (LIFE) was reported. A total of 77 biopsy confirmed sites from 30 patients were evaluated. The sensitivity for metaplasia detection by the LIFE system was 96% compared to 28% by conventional bronchoscopy. The LIFE system was found to be useful in detecting subtle cancerous/precancerous lesions.
متن کاملEndoscopic Diagnostic System Using Autofluorescence
A fluorescence imaging system (Xillix LIFE - Lung Fluorescence Endoscopy system) using fluorescence for the accurate diagnosis and early detection of lesions through an endosocope has been developed. This system has applied an optical diagnostic technology to functionally diagnose lesions which have been difficult to morphologically recognize or are occult with conventional endoscope. The benef...

STUDY OBJECTIVES To detect invisible lung cancer and to determine field of laser radiation during PDT we developed a full-color fluorescence fiberscopic system. We tested the efficacy of this system in patients with various bronchial malignancies.System design: A fiber-optic endoscope was attached to a camera box containing a color ICCD camera which can detect from 400 to 700nm fluorescence in ...
