EBUS ( endobronchial ultrasound bronchoscopy) is one of the most innovative things that has happened in the last decade in pulmonary medicine. The EBUS machine consists of a scope with an ultrasound at a strip which is useful for visualizing the lymph nodes. Previously surgeons use to go for very risky surgical procedure to access the lymph nodes which are pathologically enlarged when affected by lung cancer, tuberculosis, etc. With the advantage of endobronchial ultrasound, there is an ease in approaching these lymph nodes.

The bronchoscopy and EBUS are totally different entities.The ultrasound feature in EBUS makes a big difference when compared with bronchoscopy. The EBUS procedure generally takes 30 to 60 minutes and the patient can go home the same day.
