Summary

Exploring the Clinical Application Value of Contrast Enhancement Features in CE-EBUS Images for the Diagnosis of Pulmonary Lesions and Intrapulmonary Lymph Nodes


Eligibility

Min Age: 18 YearsMax Age: 90 Years

Inclusion Criteria4

  • Age \>18 years old;
  • Enlargement of at least one intrathoracic LN (short diameter \> 1 cm) or central parenchymal lung lesions adjacent to the airway detected on chest CT, or increased fluorodeoxyglucose uptake in at least one intrathoracic lymph node on PET / CT (standardized uptake value \> 2.5);
  • CP-EBUS-TBNA is required to determine the diagnosis or staging, the patient agreed to undergo CE-EBUS, and there were no contraindications to EBUS-TBNA;
  • Patients who have good compliance and sign informed consent.

Exclusion Criteria7

  • Patients with known hypersensitivity to ultrasound contrast components;
  • Patients with severe pulmonary hypertension (pulmonary artery pressure \> 90 mmHg);
  • Patients with angina pectoris, acute coronary syndrome, clinically unstable ischemic heart disease, heart failure, cardiac dysfunction, and cardiac disease with right-to-left shunting;
  • Patients with uncontrolled essential hypertension and adults with respiratory distress syndrome;
  • Pregnant or lactating women;
  • Patients with contraindications to bronchoscopy;
  • Patients with other conditions that, in the opinion of the investigator, make the patient unsuitable for the study.

Interventions

DEVICEContrast-enhanced endobronchial ultrasound

Using CE-EBUS to observe pulmonary lesions and abnormal enlarged intrathoracic lymph nodes, the enhancement characteristics of benign and malignant lesions under CE-EBUS were extracted for both conditions.
