Lung Biopsy: A Safe & Accurate Diagnostic Procedure
A lung biopsy is a minimally invasive procedure used to obtain a small tissue sample from a lung nodule or abnormal area for evaluation. Performed under either USG or CT scan guidance , this procedure helps diagnose infections, inflammatory conditions, or lung cancer with high precision.
Procedure Details
- Preparation: You will lie comfortably on the procedure table. The skin over the biopsy site is cleaned, and local anesthesia is applied to numb the area.
- Image-Guided Biopsy: Using CT or ultrasound guidance, a thin needle is carefully inserted into the lung to extract a small tissue sample.
- Completion: The needle is removed, a small bandage is applied, and you will be monitored for a short period before discharge. The procedure typically takes 30-45 minutes.
Post-Procedure & Discharge Advice
✔ You may be observed for a few hours to monitor for any complications.
✔ Mild soreness or a small amount of coughing is normal. Avoid strenuous activities for 24 hours.
✔ Watch for symptoms like shortness of breath or chest pain and contact your doctor if they occur.
✔ Biopsy results are usually available within a few days, and a follow-up appointment will be scheduled.
