Diagnostic Yield
Clinically Proven to Maximize Diagnostic Yield
LungVision™ produces real-time, intraoperative 3D images from any conventional C-Arm, enabling you to see the actual lesion during bronchoscopy. This eliminates CT-to-body divergence and provides visual confirmation of tool-in-lesion so that you can biopsy with confidence.
Impact of LungVision™ Image-Guided Biopsy on Diagnostic Yield
In procedures where tool-in-lesion confirmation is achieved, diagnostic yield approaches 91%.
Current Data
Recent clinical data presented at the 2022 CHEST Annual Meeting showed LungVision™ AI-driven intraoperative imaging in combination with the Auris Monarch Robotic Bronchoscopy platform achieved a 91.1% diagnostic yield.
Diagnostic yield achieved in 45 patients at U. of Chicago Medical Center with Body Vision in combination with robotic bronchoscopy.
Diagnostic yield definition similar to BENEFIT trial (malignant + specific benign + non-specific benign with negative 6+ mo. follow-up).
Comparison to Literature
- Diagnostic yield of bronchoscopy is ~70% regardless of navigation platform
- Only with intraoperative imaging are diagnostic yields of 90%+ achievable
- CHEST 2022 presentation showed LungVision™ + Ethicon MONARCH® achieved 91.1% diagnostic yield¹

LungVision™ AI Driven Intraoperative CT Imaging vs. Cone Beam CT (CBCT) and 3D C-arms
Less Radiation
Potentially 20% radiation exposure of 3D C-armsLess Time
No need to leave room and does not require rad tech to optimize imageGreater Flexibility
Can use any C-armGreater Functionality
Augmented fluoroscopy for true real-time imagingLower Total Cost of Ownership
Fraction of price of CBCT or 3D C-arm
Augmented Fluoroscopy
Fluoroscopy augmented with an overlay of the actual lesion location (vs. a virtual target) enables image-guided navigation and biopsy. Trade blind, "cloud" biopsy for a proven, image-guided approach.
