MEDICAL PROCEDURES What We Offer
Complete evaluation of lung function—from simple spirometry, bronchodilation testing, and bronchial challenge tests, to complete lung function testing with respiratory muscle testing.
Non invasive interventions:
Spirometry evaluates whether your airways are obstructed or if your lung volume is restricted. It may be recommended to evaluate symptoms such as shortness of breath or persistent cough, to diagnose certain conditions (like asthma), and is additionally used to monitor treatment for an existing condition. The bronchial response to a bronchodilator agent helps identify the underlying disease behind an abnormal test result.
Asthma is a common condition that causes lung inflammation, which can lead to coughing and shortness of breath. This inflammation is sometimes triggered by allergies or overly sensitive airways. A bronchial challenge test “challenges” your airways by asking you to inhale doses of a specific agent (such as methacholine), followed by spirometry measurements to assess your lung function.
This test determines how much air your lungs can hold after taking a deep breath, as well as how much air remains in your lungs after exhaling as much as possible. Measuring the total volume of air your lungs can hold and the amount left behind after exhalation provides your healthcare provider with detailed insight into how well your lungs are functioning and helps guide your treatment plan.
Diffusion capacity tests help evaluate shortness of breath and other respiratory symptoms by measuring how efficiently oxygen moves from the air you breathe across the lungs into your bloodstream. It is typically performed alongside a full lung function test and requires an assessment of blood hemoglobin levels prior to testing.
Thoracic ultrasound is an excellent, non-invasive diagnostic tool for evaluating shortness of breath. It assesses the lungs, pleural space, diaphragm, cardiac function, and fluid status without exposing the patient to radiation. It has a broad range of applications in pulmonary medicine and is increasingly becoming the standard of care across clinical practices.
Our clinic evaluates sleep hygiene issues and sleep-related disorders. All patients suspected of underlying sleep pathology are referred for diagnostic sleep testing.
We offer comprehensive counseling and targeted medical therapy for smokers looking to quit. We provide a variety of treatment options combined with close follow-up and collaboration with other specialists for lifestyle modification.
Invasive interventions:
An arterial blood gas test measures the precise concentrations of arterial gases, such as oxygen and carbon dioxide. An ABG test requires drawing a small blood sample from the radial artery using a thin needle and syringe. This test is essential for identifying the root causes of shortness of breath as well as excessive daytime sleepiness (hypersomnia).
A bronchoscopy may be recommended for various reasons, ranging from investigating a persistent cough to obtaining a mucus sample in cases of a lung infection. There are two main types of bronchoscopy: flexible and rigid. Flexible bronchoscopy is the most commonly performed procedure.
Bronchoscopy with TBNA is utilized to evaluate thoracic lymphadenopathy and other hard-to-reach lesions suspected of primary lung cancer or secondary malignancies that have spread to the lungs and lymph nodes. It is also used to diagnose non-cancerous conditions such as sarcoidosis or tuberculosis.
Argon plasma coagulation is a non-contact electrocoagulation technique used in conjunction with bronchoscopy to control endobronchial bleeding and to reduce or ablate endobronchial lesions.
Pleuroscopy is a medical procedure that allows the physician to directly visualize the pleural cavity—the space between the chest wall and the lung. It is performed by inserting a thin scope equipped with a camera (a pleuroscope) through a small incision in the chest wall. It is primarily performed to examine and diagnose the cause of abnormal fluid accumulation in the pleural space (pleural effusion). It enables direct visual inspection of the pleural surfaces and allows for targeted biopsies under direct vision. During the procedure, medication can also be instilled into the pleural space to prevent fluid from recurring (pleurodesis).
