At the clinic, we offer a private Endobronchial Ultrasound (EBUS) service, a cutting-edge diagnostic procedure used to examine the airways and surrounding tissues for respiratory conditions. Led by Dr. Banerjee, a specialist in respiratory and sleep medicine, this minimally invasive test provides detailed images of the lungs and lymph nodes, aiding in the diagnosis of conditions such as lung cancer, infections, and other lung diseases.
What is ebus?
EBUS combines traditional bronchoscopy with ultrasound technology, allowing Dr. Banerjee to obtain high-resolution images of the structures deep within your chest. The procedure involves inserting a flexible bronchoscope through the mouth or nose, guided by ultrasound, to assess the airways, take tissue samples, and check for abnormalities. It’s an invaluable tool for detecting conditions that may not be visible through standard imaging methods.
This procedure is typically recommended for patients who may have abnormal chest X-rays, persistent cough, unexplained weight loss, or respiratory symptoms that require further investigation. It is a safe, well-tolerated procedure that provides a clear and accurate diagnosis, helping Dr. Banerjee determine the most appropriate course of treatment.
Dr. Banerjee, with his extensive experience in respiratory medicine, ensures that each patient receives the highest standard of care. After the procedure, he will discuss the results with you in detail, explain any findings, and work with you to develop a tailored treatment plan.
Our clinic is equipped with state-of-the-art technology to ensure the procedure is carried out with precision and comfort in a professional, private setting. If you’re experiencing symptoms that may indicate lung disease or need further investigation, an EBUS offers valuable insights into your respiratory health.
