Fujifilm Introduces New Endobronchial Ultrasound Bronchoscope

FUJIFILM Healthcare Americas Corporation has unveiled the EB-710US Ultrasound Bronchoscope, which is designed to enhance workflow efficiency and imaging performance for pulmonologists. This marks a significant advancement in pulmonary care with its innovative balloon-less design.

 Senior Vice President of the Endoscopy Division at FUJIFILM Healthcare Americas, Tai Fujita, stated that with our new balloon-less EBUS scope, we’re removing unnecessary complexity while delivering exceptional ultrasound performance and simplifying workflow. Fujifilm’s EB-710US is rooted in listening to our clinician partners and reflects our commitment to advancing pulmonary care through smarter, safer technology.

According to Towards Healthcare, the U.S. endobronchial ultrasound biopsy market is projected to experience significant growth, with estimates suggesting the market size will increase from USD 449.54 million in 2026 to approximately USD 968.32 million by 2035, representing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.9% from 2026 to 2035. Growth is driven by the rising prevalence of lung cancer, chronic respiratory diseases, and the shift toward minimally invasive procedures; it is projected to experience strong growth over the next decade. EBUS-guided biopsy allows for real-time tissue sampling and mediastinal staging without the need for invasive surgical procedures like mediastinoscopy.
