thanks for your question
i think that this tecnique it`s indicated in those lesions whitout endobronchial view. it`s cost-effectivenes in those pacients that endoscopic view is not expected

VERY INTERESTING WORK
DO YOU RECOMENDED MAKING ALL THE FIBEROPTIC BRONCHOSCOPIES GUIDED BY FLUOROSCOPY OR RADIOLOGIC CONTROL?? DO YOU THINK IS COST-EFFECTIVE?
