Abstract:Early detection of cancer is crucial for lung cancer patients, as it determines disease prognosis. Lung cancer typically starts as bronchial lesions along the airway walls. Recent research has indicated that narrow-band imaging (NBI) bronchoscopy enables more effective bronchial lesion detection than other bronchoscopic modalities. Unfortunately, NBI video can be hard to interpret because physicians currently are forced to perform a time-consuming subjective visual search to detect bronchial lesions in a long … Show more
