Why Lung Health Matters?

Our ability to live a normal, healthy life is made possible by our lungs. They allow oxygen to enter our body and remove carbon dioxide. However, factors like diseases, pollution, smoking, and infections can all have an impact on the lungs' capacity to function properly. Common lung problems include asthma, bronchitis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), pneumonia, and lung cancer. These conditions are treatable, especially if diagnosed early.

State-of-the-Art Diagnostic Facilities

The initial step in treating lung conditions is making an accurate diagnosis. This is where current diagnostic techniques for diagnosing the problem come in. These diagnostic tools include the following:

Pulmonary function testing measures how well your lungs are working. It includes spirometry, lung volume measurement, and DLO2 measurement.

Fibre optic bronchoscopy allows doctors to examine the airways and take tissue samples from the lungs using an extremely thin, flexible tube equipped with a camera. The method is essential for detecting lung illnesses, infections, and tumours.

Provide detailed images of the lungs.

Pleuroscopy is a procedure that uses a camera to reveal the communication cavity between the two lungs and the chest wall. This procedure analyses and collects a tiny tissue sample from the pleura and diagnoses disorders such as pleural-fluid collection and cancers linked to asbestos exposure.

A diagnostic process to assess the airway and diagnose conditions like clogged or infected tubes.

Assist in identifying other respiratory issues associated with sleep, such as sleep apnoea.

Analyze oxygen and carbon dioxide levels in the blood.

    Frequently Asked Questions

  • What are the most common procedures in interventional radiology?

    In interventional radiology, angiography is the most often performed procedure. Modern imaging techniques are used to examine blood arteries to detect and treat diseases, including aneurysms, arterial blockages, and vascular anomalies.

  • How long does it take to recover from an interventional radiology procedure?

    Following an interventional radiology treatment, recovery time is not particularly long. Compared to standard procedures, interventional radiology techniques typically have significantly faster recovery times. Depending on the procedure's intricacy and the patient's overall condition, a few hours to several days may be needed for recuperation.

  • Does interventional radiology cause pain?

    Interventional radiology is often painless since these procedures are less invasive. Surgery is carried out under local anaesthesia that aims at blocking the sensation in the affected region. Most of the time, the pain is relatively low-grade. Injury to the skin is rather rare, though mild to severe skin inflammation may occur from time to time.

  • What difficulties does interventional radiology pose?

    Challenges of interventional radiology include complicated processes, restricted geographical access, reliance on specialised instruments, specialised training and precise imaging required for treatments to work.
