Method for improving the accuracy of a bronchial biopsy, and device for carrying out a method for improving the accuracy of a bronchial biopsy

摘要

A method is disclosed for improving the accuracy of a bronchial biopsy. In at least one embodiment, the method includes detecting the position and extent of a lesion to be biopsied by way of imaging methods, calculating the maximum biopsy depth with a known biopsy inaccuracy as a function of the extent of the lesion, and producing a biopsy plan on the basis of the calculated maximum biopsy depth and the position of the lesion. A device is also disclosed for carrying out the method.
