Overview
This course brings together experts in the field of advanced bronchoscopy to provide an introduction to beam computed tomography (CBCT), its application to bronchoscopy, and its role in future bronchoscopic interventions. As treatments for lung cancer and other thoracic malignancies continue to improve, there is increasing pressure for growth and advancement in the realm of diagnostic bronchoscopy. Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) is an advanced imaging modality with unparalleled capabilities for intraprocedural visualization and guidance. This course will provide insights and guidance into operationalizing a CBCT-guided bronchoscopy program at the institutional level, and the interdisciplinary approach to advanced bronchoscopy from the allied health professional's perspective. Lastly, the course offers several hands-on sessions for attendees to experience and become familiar with CBCT technologies.
