What Is a Pulmonary Biopsy?
-
A pulmonary biopsy involves obtaining a small tissue sample from the lungs or surrounding areas for microscopic examination and analysis.
​
-
This diagnostic tool is essential for determining the exact nature of lung abnormalities, including suspected cancers, infections, inflammatory conditions, and other pulmonary disorders.
​
-
Pulmonary biopsies are valuable when imaging studies like chest X-rays or CT scans reveal suspicious areas requiring definitive diagnosis.
​
-
The procedure allows our pulmonologists to distinguish between benign and malignant conditions, identify specific lung diseases, and guide appropriate treatment decisions.
Biopsy Procedures Offered
Bronchoscopic Biopsy: This minimally invasive procedure uses a flexible bronchoscope to visualize airways and obtain tissue samples from suspicious areas within the bronchial tree, performed under conscious sedation.
​
Transbronchial Biopsy: Through bronchoscopy, our specialists obtain tissue samples from lung parenchyma beyond visible airways, particularly useful for diagnosing interstitial lung diseases and peripheral lung lesions.
​
Pleural Biopsy: When fluid or abnormal tissue affects the pleural space surrounding lungs, we perform pleural biopsies to diagnose conditions like pleural effusions, mesothelioma, or metastatic disease.
​
CT-Guided Needle Biopsy: For lesions difficult to reach through bronchoscopy, we coordinate with radiology specialists for image-guided needle biopsies, ensuring precise targeting while minimizing patient discomfort.
​
Lymph Node Biopsy: When enlarged lymph nodes are detected in the chest, we perform mediastinal lymph node sampling through bronchoscopic techniques to diagnose conditions like sarcoidosis, lymphoma, or metastatic cancer.
