A newly developed endobronchial ultrasound processor system (EU-ME1; Olympus Ltd., Tokyo, Japan) improves the quality of ultrasound image by elevating cycles per minute. We report identification of mediastinal lymph node metastasis in a patient with small cell lung cancer. The new endobronchial ultrasound system images enabled visualization of metastatic site within the subcarinal lymph node by the combination of ultrasound image and Doppler mode.
一种新开发的支气管内超声处理器系统(EU-ME1;奥林巴斯公司,东京,日本)通过提高每分钟的周期数来提高超声图像的质量。我们报告了一例小细胞肺癌患者纵隔淋巴结转移的识别。新的支气管内超声系统图像通过超声图像和多普勒模式的结合,使我们能够观察到subcarinal 淋巴结内转移部位。
