Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue will provide an overview of the latest developments in the field of diagnostic bronchoscopy. The featured articles will address the introduction of advanced imaging techniques, such as three-dimensional reconstruction and real-time virtual bronchoscopy, which have significantly improved the accuracy and safety of bronchoscopic procedures, as well as discussing the role of artificial intelligence in enhancing diagnostic capabilities, including the use of machine learning algorithms to detect subtle abnormalities. Furthermore, articles will explore advancements in interventional bronchoscopy, with a focus on minimally invasive techniques that reduce patient discomfort and recovery times. Overall, the advancements discussed in these articles will demonstrate the continued evolution of diagnostic bronchoscopy, benefiting both patients and healthcare providers.
