Among the range of diagnostic and therapeutic examinations offered by the approaches of interventional pneumology, 2 diagnostic examinations will now be available on the site of the Clinique des Grangettes.
Fiberscope bronchoscopy
This is an endoscopic examination of the upper airways, trachea and bronchi, which is performed through the mouth with the help of a flexible tube equipped with a camera, and which allows samples to be taken from the bronchi and lungs (biopsies, microbiological tests).
Endobronchial ultrasonography
This technique using ultrasound waves is a combination of bronchoscopy and ultrasound. It allows sampling of structures attached to the bronchi (punctures).
