Abstract
Robotic assisted thoracic surgery (RATS) is an effective treatment for early stage lung cancer and for diagnosis of small lung nodules. The Ion robotic bronchoscopy system allows for more accurate biopsy and dye marking of smaller peripheral lung nodules. We have combined these two robot systems along with endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS) to create a single anesthesia procedure for the diagnosis, staging and resection of suspicious lung nodules: Combined Robotic Assisted Thoracic Surgery (CRATS).
