About

Muhanned Abu‐Hijleh is a leading voice in advanced bronchoscopy, whose work is redefining the diagnosis of peripheral pulmonary lesions. His research centers on the integration of shape-sensing robotic-assisted bronchoscopy (ssRAB) with real-time imaging, specifically radial endobronchial ultrasound (r-EBUS) and cone beam computed tomography (CBCT). His landmark 2022 study, cited over 60 times, demonstrated that combining these modalities significantly enhances diagnostic yield for challenging lung nodules, establishing a new standard for precision in interventional pulmonology. Building on this, his 2023 investigation into the radiation dose of CBCT during ssRAB provided critical safety data, addressing a key concern for clinicians adopting this technology. More recently, his analysis of procedural times in a high-volume setting offers practical insights for optimizing clinical workflow and scheduling. With a cumulative citation count exceeding 100, Abu‐Hijleh’s work is not only advancing technical capability but also ensuring its safe and efficient implementation. His contributions are essential reading for pulmonologists and researchers seeking to navigate the rapidly evolving landscape of robotic-assisted bronchoscopy.
