VIRTUAL BRONCHOSCOPIC NAVIGATION (VBN) SYSTEM

Image Guidance for Bronchoscopy

  • Provides real-time path navigation within the lungs for lung biopsy and other
    DX/TX procedures
  • Side-by-side navigation pairs real-time and virtual images throughout procedure
  • Navigation guides user to target with 3mm accuracy
  • System operation does not require specialized, disposable instruments

Description

Real-time guidance with LungPoint Virtual Bronchoscopic Navigation simultaneously shows the live and virtual views and the path to follow-with navigation accuracy of 3mm

VERSATILE PLANNING & SOPHISTICATED GUIDANCE

Easy Set-Up, Simple to Use

Import CT from PACS server, disc or flash drive

System reconstructs 3D airways/major vessels from CT scan; Calculates centerline for
each airway

User IDs target on CT image and up to 3 pathways are calculated based on target location

Virtual Bronchoscopic simulation of airway view for each pathway shows all airways greater than 3mm

Target is superimposed on virtual bronchoscopic view

Distance and airway diameter measurements provided, enabling localization of target

INTUITIVE GUIDANCE AND NAVIGATION

  • Target is superimposed on actual bronchoscopic view
  • Live view is displayed simultaneously alongside the virtual animation views and path, confirming location and orientation as you maneuver through the airways
  • Airway diameter measurements help size bronchoscope, stent, valve, implant devices
