Bronchoscopy | Advanced Airway Examination & Lung Biopsy
A specialized procedure using a flexible camera to examine airways, collect tissue samples, and diagnose infections, lung diseases, or tumors.
What is a Bronchoscopy?
Bronchoscopy is a minimally invasive diagnostic and therapeutic procedure that allows doctors to examine your lungs and airways using a thin, flexible tube (bronchoscope) with a camera.
Detect lung infections, inflammation, or tumors
Collect lung tissue samples (biopsy) for cancer and TB testing.
Diagnose chronic cough, bleeding, or breathing difficulties.
Remove airway blockages, mucus, or foreign objects.
Who Needs a Bronchoscopy?
A bronchoscopy may be recommended if you experience:
Chronic cough or unexplained breathing difficulties
Blood in sputum (hemoptysis) or lung infections (TB, pneumonia)
Abnormal chest X-ray or CT scan results
Suspected lung cancer or interstitial lung disease (ILDs)
Airway blockages, collapsed lung, or excessive mucus buildup
How is a Bronchoscopy Performed?
A quick and safe procedure performed under local anesthesia or sedation
Step 1
A numbing spray is applied to the throat to reduce discomfort.
Step 2
A thin, flexible bronchoscope is inserted through the nose or mouth into the lungs.
Step 3
The doctor examines the airways and may collect tissue samples (biopsy).
Step 4
The procedure takes about 30-60 minutes, and patients can usually go home the same day.
