PENTAX Medical has developed a comprehensive endoscopy training courses curriculum inspired by the medical guidelines of ESGE and ERS. It was developed with recognized training experts, allowing an exchange between physicians from Europe and global medical leaders. Our greatest reward is fostering the next generation of endoscopy experts.
To achieve this we meticulously designed our European Training Center, we developed the PENTAX Medical Forward Academy™ curriculum, and we partner with leading providers of digital and in-person education. Our commitment is to empower healthcare professionals, enhancing their skills to elevate patient outcomes.

The PENTAX Medical Forward Academy™ EBUS‑TBNA is a comprehensive training curriculum inspired by ESGE and ERS guidelines and curricula for achieving proficiency in performing endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration.
Endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) is now the most important tool in the diagnosis, staging, and molecular testing of patients with lung cancer. EBUS‑TBNA is also highly valued in the diagnostic workup of unclear mediastinal and hilar lymphadenopathy. This technique is now used in many endoscopic centers, but due to its complexity requires appropriate training to achieve the best possible bronchoscopic diagnosis. For this purpose, we have created the PENTAX Medical EBUS‑TBNA course.
Together with the proven experts in the field of EBUS‑TBNA and cytological diagnostics, we invite you to improve your bronchoscopic skills with us.
