Bronchoscopy

Precision Bronchoscopy Services in Malleshwaram | Manipal Hospitals Bangalore

The bronchoscopy procedure provides direct access to the airways, allowing for accurate diagnosis and treatment of lung conditions. Pulmonologists use thin, flexible bronchoscopy instruments to examine lung structures by passing the scope through the nose to reach the breathing tubes. It is done to remove a foreign body, collect tissue samples, and perform a biopsy if required. Respiratory physicians need this procedure to identify lung infections alongside tumours, treat persistent coughs, and determine the roots of unexplained bleeding. 

During therapeutic bronchoscopy, pulmonologists, use the scope to achieve three functions: clear airway blockages, control blood loss, and place surgical instruments in the airway to prevent narrowing. They may administer a mild sedative or general anaesthesia to ensure your comfort during the procedure. 

Postoperative throat pain and cough episodes are regular and dissipate shortly after treatment. Although these complications occur infrequently, the procedure team watches for unusual bleeding or infection. The diagnostic information obtained through bronchoscopy leads to precise medical diagnoses and treatment methods that improve respiratory function.
