Book excerpt: Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2008 in the subject Medicine - Neoplasms, Oncology, grade: 1.00, , language: English, abstract: Centrally arising squamous cell carcinoma of the airway is thought to develop through multiple stages from squamous metaplasia to dysplasia, followed by carcinoma in situ (CIS), progressing to invasive cancer. It would be ideal to be able to detect and treat preinvasive bronchial lesions before progressing to invasive cancer. Advances in early diagnostic and treatment options have the potential to manage LC while still in an intraepithelial and/or microinvasive stage. WLB is one of the most commonly used diagnostic tools for LC. However, WLB is limited in its ability to detect small intraepithelial and microinvasive preinvasive lesions.AFB was developed to address this limitation by WLB. Indications for AFI examination; (1) Patients with known or suspected LC (2) Patients with abnormal sputum cytology (3) Patients after curative surgery for stage I LC(4) Current or former smokers with symptoms. A total of 74.7% patients had abnormal sputum cytology, 14.3% had known or suspected LC. All patients underwent conventional WLB followed by AFI examination; using the AFI device. Bronchoscopic-guided biopsy specimens were obtained. Sensitivity, specificity, and diagnostic accuracy of WLB versus that of AFI, were 58.3% Vs 88.9%; 46.7% Vs 71.9%; and 53.0% Vs 80.9%. with a very high significant difference (p value
Book Synopsis Autofluorescence Bronchoscopy by : Manfred Wagner
Download or read book Autofluorescence Bronchoscopy written by Manfred Wagner and published by . This book was released on 2007-01 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At present lung cancer is the most common cancer in the world and responsible for over 1 million deaths worldwide. Advances in bronchoscopy have helped to increase detection rates of central type early lung cancer. These lesions are invisible on the basis of radiological methods. They usually show only subtle changes of the bronchial mucosa and are therefore sometimes difficult to identify by conventional bronchoscopy. The data showing the ability to increase the diagnostic rate for early lung cancer in the central airways by autofluorescence bronchoscopy are convincing. Video-chip-autofluorescence bronchoscopy seems to be one of the technologies with the largest impact on diagnostic bronchoscopy in the last decades.

This book was released on 2019-09-17 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Special Issue of Cancers (Basel) is mainly dedicated to selecting papers from the talks given during the first Joint Meeting on Lung Cancer (JMLC) between the MD Anderson Cancer Center (Houston, Texas USA) and the Hospital University Federation (HUF) OncoAge (University Côte d’Azur, Nice, France) (Nice, September 2018). The central theme of JMLC is to discuss new advances and exchange ideas regarding lung cancer. Notably, the talks covered different topics on new therapeutic strategies (targeted therapy and immuno-oncology), molecular and cellular biology, biomarkers, and the epidemiology of lung cancer. Special attention was also given to lung cancer in elderly patients. The articles published in this Special Issue covered subjects such as the assessment of new biomarkers and new approaches for the early detection of lung cancer, epidemiological data, and emphasized a place for the newly characterized cellular pathways in lung cancer, which opens room for therapeutic perspectives for lung cancer patients.

This book was released on 2008-12-31 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pleural effusions, left and right heart dysfunction, mediastinal nodal pathology, and pulmonary embolism are just a few of the many thoracic diseases which can be diagnosed with the help of ultrasound techniques! Chest sonography has become an established procedure in the stepwise imaging diagnosis of pulmonary, cardiac, and pleural disease. It is the method of choice for many diseases and allows the investigator to make an unequivocal diagnosis without exposing the patient to costly and stressful procedures. This book, volume 37 in the well-known Progress in Respiratory Research series, presents the state of the art in clinical chest ultrasonography. As implied by its title, it covers all aspects of ultrasound involving the chest, at the same time differentiating between routine and emergency procedures. Basic elements such as indications, investigational techniques and imaging artifacts are detailed in separate chapters. The large number of excellent illustrations and the compact text provide concise and easy-to-assimilate information about the diagnostic procedure. Apart from the printed still pictures, the book comes with a complimentary online repository containing a variety of key videos. Each chapter presents an autonomous concise overview of indications, methods, diagnoses and pitfalls and can be used as a systematic review. It is written by leading experts as a guide by clinicians for clinicians and is a must for physicians, pulmonologists, intensivists, as well as all doctors with an interest in chest medicine.
