The Expect Pulmonary EBUS-TBNA Needle is designed to be used with endobronchial ultrasound bronchoscopes for ultrasound guided fine needle aspiration of the submucosal and extramural lesions of the tracheobronchial tree and the gastrointestinal tract.

Apr 2, 2022 · Many questions remain as to how EBUS-TBNA procedures can be optimized for this purpose: preferred needle size, number of needle passes, number of nodal stations to be sampled, role of combined transbronchial or endobronchial biopsies, role of rapid on-site cytology.

Olympus offers EBUS-TBNA needles in a range of sizes, adding both 19G and 25G to its original portfolio of 21G and 22G needles. But now it also provides the second generation of EBUS needles - the ViziShot2.

• The 5 cm long needle extension presents a large diagnostic reach. • The naturally contoured handle offers needle control and stability. • The device has an adjustable sheath length. • On scopes with metal Luer hubs, the removable sheath adjuster allows direct connection to …

Jan 1, 2021 · Diagnostic yield was similar between 19 and 21 G needles overall (89.4% vs. 88.7%, P=0.71). The 19 G needles showed higher smear cellularity (32.6% vs. 13.0%, P=0.05), and rapid on-site cytology evaluation adequacy (84.8% vs. 63.0%, P=0.004) in lymph nodes with cancer diagnosis.

Feb 28, 2025 · EBUS-TBNB was performed with 22 G or 25 G needle sizes. DY for cancer and SA for predictive markers were evaluated. Overall DY (ODY) was also evaluated. Results: A 22 G needle was used in 51 patients and a 25 G needle was used in …

Form stable nitinol needles The flexibility of the needles facilitates the sampling Needle adjustment with a simple and precise one-handed operation Laser-etched v-notches for improved echogenicity of the needle The smooth catheter ensures movement in angled positions Adjustable for left- and right-handers
