Nominee: Olympus America Inc. BF-UC190F Endobronchial Ultrasound Bronchoscope
The company says its device “provides enhanced access and control to allow staging and diagnosis of even difficult-to-reach lymph nodes and lesions.”
The scope features real-time ultrasound imaging for direct visualization of the needle as it pierces the lymph node, a compact distal tip designed for better access to difficult-to-reach lymph node stations and a steeper needle puncture angle for smoother penetration.
