This is a single-center study. The purpose of this study is o evaluate the diagnostic value of special light (TXI, NBI, RDI) in endotracheal/bronchial lesions.
The latest endoscopic system, EVIS X1 (Olympus Medical Systems, Tokyo, Japan), was developed in 2020, which includes brighter and clearer WLI, third-generation (3G)-NBI, texture and color enhancement imaging (TXI) ,and red dichromatic imaging (RDI) as a new image-enhanced endoscopy (IEE) . texture and color enhancement imaging (TXI) as a new image-enhanced endoscopy (IEE). The TXI is designed to enhance the 3 image elements of WLI (texture, brightness, and color) using Retinex-based enhancements while maintaining image naturalness (WLI appearance) clearly defines subtle tissue differences. RDI enables observation of deeper tissue regions by utilizing light of longer wavelengths; such light has weak light scattering characteristics, thus providing the opposite effect of NBI. The original purpose of RDI was to reduce the risk of bleeding during endoscopic treatment by improving the visibility of thick blood vessels in deeper tissues. Although great efforts have been made in exploring the various clinical efficacies of RDI, no published reports have comprehensively covered both the technological and clinical aspects of RDI. The purpose of this study is o evaluate the diagnostic value of special light (TXI, NBI, RDI) in endotracheal/bronchial lesions.

Diagnostic accuracy of the special light for endotracheal/bronchial Lesions.
Histopathology will be used as the gold standard. To compare the diagnostic value of the special light (TXI, NBI, RDI) and white light (WLI) in differential diagnosis of benign and malignant luminal lesions.
Time frame: 1month
The diagnostic methods and grading criteria of the special light
Based on the special light (TXI, NBI, RDI), the diagnostic methods and grading criteria for benign and malignant endotracheal/bronchial lesions were established.
Time frame: 1 month
