The area of bronchoscopy is continuously evolving. As use of the procedure increases, it’s important for clinicians across more specialties to stay abreast of changes and build their knowledge of bronchoscopy. This bite-sized video reviews two important bronchoscopic options: electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy (ENB) and shape-sensing robotic-assisted bronchoscopy (SSRAB). Learn more about key considerations for the use of ENB and SSRAB, the unique functionality offered by fiber-optic shape-sensing technology, and recent data on both procedures.
