Brief Title: Augmented Endobronchial Ultrasound (EBUS-TBNA) With Artificial Intelligence
Official Title: Automatic Segmentation of Mediastinal Lymph Nodes and Blood Vessels in Endobronchial Ultrasound (EBUS) Images Using a Deep Neural Network
Study ID: NCT05739331
Brief Summary: To evaluate the usefulness of Deep neural network (DNN) in the evaluation of mediastinal and hilar lymph nodes with Endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS). The study will explore the feasibility of DNN to identify lymph nodes and blood vessel examined with EBUS.
Detailed Description: Multi-center prospective feasibility study. The DNN model will be trained on ultrasound images with annotation to identifies lymph nodes and blood vessels examined with EBUS. The ability of the DNN to segment lymph nodes and vessels based on postoperative processing and static EBUS images will be evaluated in the first part of the study. In the second part of the study Real-time use of DNN in EBUS procedure will be evaluated.
