Abstract
- The article discusses a study which aims to assess the efficacy of autofluorescence imaging (AFI) as a diagnostic medical thoracoscopy (MT) tool for pleural disease. Topics discussed include the use of AFI videobronchoscope BF-F260 fluorescence method, the thoracoscopic procedure applied, and the use of McNemar test to analyze the contrasts and consistency between white light thoracoscopy (WLT) and AFI.
