In the last decade endobronchial ultrasound with real-time guided needle aspiration (EBUS-NA) has been recognized worldwide as a tool with remarkable impact on routine clinical practice. In the present review article, we focus on specific disease-related features of EBUS-NA, including diagnosis and staging of thoracic malignancies, sarcoidosis, tuberculosis and its role in the evaluation of isolated enlarged mediastinal lymph nodes. We also address some less common conditions and discuss emerging and future developments in EBUS technique.
