Endobronchial ultrasound transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA)


 

Endobronchial ultrasound transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA)

Quick recovery with no downtime!
It is a reliable and well-established technique that enables the visualization and sampling of mediastinal, central, and hilar lesions and lymph nodes within the tracheobronchial tree.
With the EBUS bronchoscope inserted into the trachea or the esophagus, the accessible lymph node stations can be explored and the lesions outlined.
It offers you the freedom to select from different EBUS needle lineups and sizes depending on your needs.
Consult Dr. Arunesh and learn more about the diagnostic procedure.

What is Thoracoscopy?



 Thoracoscopy is the application of video imaging technology to standard thoracic surgical procedures.

You may need thoracoscopy for few reasons:
• Detect lung problems.
• To check an abnormal area as seen on an imaging test.
• To treat small lung cancers.
• To take biopsy samples.
• To remove excess fluid that is around the lung.
Want to learn details about the thoracoscopy procedures?
Consult Dr. Arunesh or book an appointment!

Lung Cancer Awareness Month



 Lung cancer begins in the lungs but it may spread to lymph nodes or other organs in the body, such as the brain.

The chance of successful or curative treatment is much higher when lung cancer is diagnosed and treated in the early stages before it spreads.
The most common type is non-small cell lung cancer. It makes up about 80 to 85 percent of all cases.
Non-small cell lung cancer has four main stages:
• Stage 1: Cancer is found in the lung, but it has not spread outside the lung.
• Stage 2: Cancer is found in the lung and nearby lymph nodes.
• Stage 3: Cancer is in the lung and lymph nodes in the middle of the chest.
• Stage 3A: Cancer is found in lymph nodes, but only on the same side of the chest where cancer first started growing.
• Stage 3B: Cancer has spread to lymph nodes on the opposite side of the chest or to lymph nodes above the collarbone.
• Stage 4: Cancer has spread to both lungs, into the area around the lungs, or to distant organs.
Don’t delay seeking treatment and consult Dr. Arunesh if you have any symptoms that worry you.

Lung Cancer



 The best prevention for lung cancer is to stop smoking or never start.

Quitting smoking has immediate health benefits that help minimize a person’s risk of developing lung cancer.
Exercising and eating a healthy, balanced diet also help reduce the risk of cancer. When you stay fit and active, it’s easier to maintain a healthy weight, which is important in preventing chronic disease, like cancer.
If you want to discuss further details about lung cancer, consult Dr. Arunesh, or book an appointment.
