Lung Biopsy

At NUmed Hospital, we offer expert-led lung biopsy services to help diagnose lung diseases, infections, and cancer with precision. A lung biopsy is a procedure where a small sample of tissue is taken from the lung for laboratory analysis. This helps doctors identify the cause of abnormal lung findings detected in X-rays, CT scans, or during medical evaluations.

Why is a Lung Biopsy Done?

A lung biopsy helps in diagnosing conditions such as:

• Lung infections or inflammation
• Lung cancer or tumors
• Unexplained fluid buildup or tissue abnormalities
• Chronic lung diseases like pulmonary fibrosis

Types of Lung Biopsy Performed at NUmed Hospital

• Needle Biopsy: Using a thin needle inserted through the chest wall to collect lung tissue.
• Bronchoscopic Biopsy: A flexible bronchoscope is passed through the airways to collect tissue samples.
• Surgical Biopsy: In some cases, a small surgery may be performed to obtain a larger tissue sample.
