Abstract
Bronchoscopic biopsy of peripheral pulmonary nodules has evolved in recent years with the emergence of new technologies such as shape-sensing robotic-assisted bronchoscopy. The use of three-dimensional (3D) fluoroscopy for intraoperative visualization of the biopsy tool in relation to the target nodule aims to overcome computed tomography-to-body divergence encountered during the procedure and allows for more accurate sampling to improve adequacy and diagnostic performance. Until recently, the robotic-assisted navigation plan and 3D imaging function as separate systems. We present a case where intraoperative 3D fluoroscopy images were integrated to the robotic bronchoscopy navigation system, resulting in a single, dynamic, real-time 3D virtual plan showing readjusted paths toward the lesion displayed in the robotic bronchoscopy navigation system, allowing in this case, biopsying two bilateral pulmonary nodules, resulting in different diagnosis within the same endoscopic procedure.
