About
Dr. Julie Piccione is a leading pediatric pulmonologist whose research focuses on advancing diagnostic and interventional bronchoscopy for children. Her work has been instrumental in characterizing the use of cutting-edge techniques—including endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS)-guided biopsies, CT navigation, and robotic bronchoscopy—within pediatric care, a field historically dominated by adult applications. Her most-cited study, a comprehensive survey of U.S. pediatric pulmonologists, revealed critical gaps in training and access to these advanced procedures, highlighting the need for standardized protocols and specialized pediatric equipment. By documenting current practices and perspectives, Dr. Piccione has provided a foundational roadmap for expanding minimally invasive, therapeutic airway interventions—such as balloon dilation—in children with complex respiratory conditions. Her contributions are shaping the future of pediatric bronchoscopy, bridging the gap between adult innovations and child-specific needs. With her work garnering growing attention (including 8 citations for her landmark 2024 paper), Dr. Piccione is a pivotal voice in pediatric pulmonology, advocating for safer, more effective diagnostic and therapeutic options for young patients.
