Interventional Pulmonology is a subspecialty of pulmonary medicine that focuses on diagnosing and treating complex lung conditions using minimally invasive procedures. This approach reduces pain, shortens recovery times, and minimizes complications compared to traditional open surgery. Traditional pulmonologists primarily diagnose and manage lung conditions through non-invasive methods and medication.

Patients with a wide range of lung and airway conditions can benefit from Interventional Pulmonology. This includes those with lung cancer, lung nodules, airway stenosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), pleural diseases, asthma, and tracheal disorders. Our team tailors treatments to individual patient needs.

We utilize advanced diagnostic tools, including endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS), navigational bronchoscopy, and electromagnetic navigation to accurately diagnose lung conditions. These minimally invasive techniques allow for precise evaluation and staging.

Many of our interventional pulmonology procedures are performed under conscious sedation or general anesthesia, ensuring patient comfort during the process. The choice of anesthesia will depend on the specific procedure and patient needs.

Recovery times vary depending on the procedure, the patient's overall health, and the complexity of the condition. In many cases, patients can expect a shorter recovery time compared to traditional open surgery. Your interventional pulmonologist will provide you with personalized post-procedure care instructions.

As with any medical procedure, there are potential risks. However, Interventional Pulmonology procedures are minimally invasive, which typically results in lower risks and complications compared to open surgery. Your healthcare team will discuss the specific risks and benefits of your procedure before you decide to move forward.

Most medical insurance plans cover Interventional Pulmonology procedures when they are medically necessary. Our team will work closely with your insurance provider to ensure that you receive the coverage you are entitled to. We recommend contacting your insurance company for specific details regarding your coverage.

We understand that dealing with lung conditions can be challenging. Our team is here to provide you with support and guidance at every step. You will have access to a network of healthcare professionals, including nurses, social workers, and patient navigators, who can assist you in managing your condition and addressing your concerns.
