What is Bronchoscopy?

in chestspecialist •  2 years ago 

Bronchoscopy is a method that allows doctors to check out your lungs and air passages. Generally performed by a specialist who specializes in lung disorders (pulmonologist delhi) or a chest specialist. During bronchoscopy, a thin tube (bronchoscope) is passed through your nose or mouth, down your throat, and into your lungs.

Bronchoscopy is most commonly performed utilizing a flexible bronchoscope. However, in specific circumstances, for example, if there's a lot of bleeding in your lungs or a large item is stuck in your airway, a rigid bronchoscope might be required.

Normal reasons behind requiring bronchoscopy are a persistent cough, infection, or something unusual seen on a chest X-ray or other test.

Bronchoscopy can also be used to get samples of mucus or tissue performed by a chest specialist, to eliminate foreign bodies or other blockages from the airways or lungs, or to give treatment to lung issues.
