Abstract

Endobronchial ultrasound with a guide sheath (EBUS-GS) is a useful method that enables localization of a lesion by R-EBUS followed by placement of a guide sheath to allow precise specimen collection. EBUS-GS requires proper basic bronchoscopy skills in order to precisely maneuver the guide sheath to the desired sampling site.
