“…Recently, magnetic sensors [5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15] are developed for electromagnetic and magnetic navigating/targeting/tracking systems which become important alternative navigating/targeting/tracking approaches for surgical/clinical applications [16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24]. More recently, these magnetic sensor based electromagnetic navigations are integrated with standard EBUS as a hybrid system to perform a more accurate navigating/targeting endobronchoscope to target/locate lung tumors/lesions [25,26,27,28,29,30]. The system consists of a magnetic sensor attached on a distal-end of an EBUS convex probe (whose diameter is much bigger than a radial probe), a magnetic-sensors-module attached to the patient as a location reference, a huge magnetic-field generator, and an image/signal-processing module.…”
