The 1st AABIP EBUS bronchoscopy course took place on July 11, 2014 at The Ohio State University. This was a fantastic opportunity for both novices as well as for those already using EBUS to improve or learn new skills in order to increase their diagnostic yield. Both radial and linear EBUS were taught in a high and low fidelity simulation environment. A total of 8.5 AMA PRA category 1 CME credit were offered This course was endorsed by the American Thoracic Society and the World Association of Bronchology & Interventional Pulmonology. Given the success of this 1st course, AABIP plans on organizing it on a regular basis. The next venue and date will be posted on the website and in the upcoming issues of the Newsletter.
