Abstract

Endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) is used to confirm diagnosis of lung cancer. It relies on insertion of a surgical needle into a lymph node and diagnostic yield is presently variable. This paper presents an experimental exploration of EBUS-TBNA and outlines its potential to inform needle redesign using finite element analysis.
