Influence of narrow band imaging (NBI) videobronchoscopy on the assessment of central lung cancer extension and therapeutic decision.

30 Oct 2009 OBJECTIVES: Determination of specificity and sensitivity of narrow band imaging (NBI) in the assessment of tumor extension in centrally located lung cancer, when compared to white light bronchoscopy (WLB) alone, and evaluation of possible influence ... Read more...

Bronchial abnormalities found in a consecutive series of 40 brachycephalic dogs.

29 Sep 2009 OBJECTIVE: To detect abnormalities of the lower respiratory tract (trachea, principal bronchi, and lobar bronchi) in brachycephalic dogs by use of endoscopy, evaluate the correlation between laryngeal collapse and bronchial abnormalities, and ... Read more...

Propranolol for airway hemangiomas: case report of novel treatment.

29 Sep 2009 Infantile hemangiomas arising in the trachea are rare. These lesions pose a management dilemma as several treatment options can provide safe management. Propranolol, a nonselective beta-blocker, has recently been introduced as a novel modality for ... Read more...
