Abstract:
The peripheral pulmonary lesions are located far from the central airway and close to the pleura, so it is a challenge for clinical diagnosis of their nature through biopsy. Therefore, the Ion robot-assisted bronchoscopy system which has started its commercialization in China is proposed to diagnose and treat peripheral pulmonary lesions. The Ion system can be used for navigation, registration, biopsy and treatment. In this paper, the structural principle of the Ion system is expounded, and its technical advantages such as shape perception, slender catheter and flexible operation are summarized. It represents the latest development direction of the diagnosis and treatment of peripheral pulmonary lesions. Then, the clinical application and development status of the Ion system are analyzed and discussed in detail. Finally, the development trend of the robot-assisted bronchoscopy system is prospected, which provides new ideas for realizing the "integrated and one-stop" diagnosis and treatment services for peripheral pulmonary lesions based on this system.
