People also ask
How is a robotic lung biopsy done?
Using a controller at a console, a doctor maneuvers the robotic arm and catheter. Using the 3D image of the airways (generated from CT scans), the doctor directs the catheter down the throat and through the airways in the lung.
How long does a robotic bronchoscopy biopsy take?
Robotic bronchoscopy is an outpatient procedure done under general anesthesia that takes 60 to 90 minutes. Before the procedure, you will need to fast overnight, and you may be asked to stop taking certain medications, such as blood thinners, a few days prior.
What are the risks of robotic bronchoscopy?
Because the bronchoscope is inserted through your vocal cords, you may have a cough during and after the procedure. A sore throat after the procedure is common and cough drops may help. Other risks may include infection, spasming of the airways, a hole in the airway or a collapsed lung.
How do they do a transbronchial biopsy on the lungs?
A transbronchial biopsy usually takes less than 30 minutes. Your doctor will pass a flexible telescope (bronchoscope) through your nose and down into your lungs. Your doctor will use the bronchoscope to examine your airways. They will gently push small forceps down one of your airways (a bronchus) into your lung.
