About
Desi K. M. ter Woerds is a clinical researcher whose work centers on advancing image-guided minimally invasive diagnostics for pulmonary nodules, with a particular focus on cone-beam CT (CBCT) applications in lung biopsy. Her major contribution lies in synthesizing clinical practice insights to improve the accuracy and safety of endobronchial navigation and tissue sampling for intermediate- to high-risk lung lesions. Her most cited paper, a 2022 clinical practice review on cone-beam CT in lung biopsy, has garnered 24 citations and serves as a key resource for pulmonologists and interventional radiologists navigating technological innovations in this rapidly evolving field. By critically evaluating lessons learned and outlining future perspectives, ter Woerds has helped bridge the gap between emerging CBCT technologies and real-world procedural outcomes. Her work is particularly impactful for trainees and clinicians seeking to optimize diagnostic yield while minimizing patient risk. Through her focused contributions, ter Woerds has established herself as a thoughtful voice in the ongoing refinement of lung cancer diagnostic pathways.
