Our team provides diagnostic testing and treatment for thoracic abnormalities and pulmonary diseases including:
Bronchoscopy procedures: Enables us to visualize specific lobes or bronchi, better detect premalignant lesions, and navigate to hard-to-reach lung lesions for diagnosis and treatment planning.
Options include flexible bronchoscopy, electromagnetic navigational bronchoscopy, rigid bronchoscopy combined with thermal ablation, and mechanical techniques to alleviate symptoms.
Endobronchial ultrasound: Guides sampling of central lung masses and lymph nodes for diagnosis of lung cancer, lung infections, or other diseases causing enlarged lymph nodes or abnormalities within the lung.
Pleural procedures: Includes pleuroscopy or thoracentesis, which enable visualization of the pleural space and treatment at the source of fluid.
Dynamic imaging: Involves collaboration with thoracic radiologists using the most advanced and fastest CT scanners to provide personalized and precise characterizations of airways.
3D printing: Creates custom-designed anatomic replica of the airway, which allows our team to examine abnormalities and determine appropriate prosthesis or treatment options.
Bronchial thermoplasty: Delivers precisely controlled thermal energy to the airways via a catheter for people with severe or persistent asthma.
