Shots:
- Olympus has launched the BF-UCP190F peripheral endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS) bronchoscope in the US, a slim-diameter scope designed to reach beyond mediastinal lymph nodes to segmental & sub-segmental airways for EBUS-TBNA sampling
- With a 5.9mm outer diameter at the distal end, 170° upward angulation, a 14° forward oblique view and a shorter distal end vs BF-UC190F, the device aims to expand access for real-time ultrasound-guided biopsy of deeper lung targets; it remains compatible with the ViziShot 2 25G EBUS-TBNA needle
- BF-UCP190F integrates with Olympus’ EVIS X1 Endoscopy System & EU-ME3 Ultrasound Processor; the company will highlight it at CHEST (Oct 19–21, Phoenix)
