An exercise-induced lung stress test assesses how your lungs respond to physical activity. During the test, you'll exercise on a treadmill or stationary bike while your heart rate, breathing, blood pressure, and oxygen levels are monitored. This helps identify any abnormal lung responses to exercise.

Initial hospital inpatient care is a service where a healthcare provider spends about 50 minutes per day overseeing your care while you're admitted in the hospital. This includes reviewing your health status, planning your treatment, and ensuring your safety and comfort.

This procedure involves a special tube with a camera (endoscope) entering your lung airways. Guided by ultrasound, it collects samples from 1-2 lymph nodes. This helps doctors understand and diagnose potential issues in your lungs.

A needle biopsy of windpipe cartilage, airway, or lung involves using a thin, flexible tube with a camera (endoscope) to access and collect tissue samples. This procedure helps doctors diagnose lung conditions or diseases effectively and safely.

This procedure, known as a thoracentesis, involves removing fluid from the space between the lungs and chest wall, called the pleural space. It's performed under imaging guidance to ensure precision. It can help diagnose conditions or relieve symptoms like shortness of breath.

Critical care involves immediate and constant attention by a team of specially-trained health professionals. It's for patients with life-threatening conditions, requiring first 30-74 minutes of intense monitoring and treatment.

A limited or follow-up CT scan is a procedure where a specialized X-ray machine takes multiple images of your body from different angles. This scan focuses on a specific area and helps doctors track progress or changes after treatment or over time. It's non-invasive and usually quick.

This procedure involves the use of a special camera, called an endoscope, and computer technology to create real-time images of your lung airways. This helps doctors navigate through your lungs accurately, aiding in diagnosis or treatment.

This procedure measures how air flows in and out of your lungs. It's done before and after medication to see if the treatment improves your breathing. It's a simple, non-invasive test that involves breathing into a device called a spirometer.

This procedure involves placing a tube into your chest to drain excess fluid from around your lung. This fluid can cause discomfort and breathing difficulties. The tube remains in place until all the fluid is removed, helping you breathe easier.

This procedure involves a radiologist examining images, such as X-rays or scans, to identify areas where fluid has built up in the body. The radiologist then determines the best method to safely drain the excess fluid. This helps alleviate discomfort and promotes healing.

This is a procedure where a thin, flexible tube called an endoscope is inserted through your mouth into the lungs. A small amount of saline is then introduced to wash the airways. The fluid, along with cells from the lung, is suctioned back for analysis.

This procedure involves using a specialized instrument, called an endoscope, to examine the lung airways. An ultrasound is also used to get a clearer image of any growths. If necessary, the doctor can perform procedures to diagnose or treat these growths.

A lung biopsy is a procedure where a small piece of lung tissue is taken for testing. An endoscope, a flexible tube with a light and camera, is used. It's inserted through the mouth or nose, down the windpipe, and into one lobe of the lung.
