Bronchoscope technology leads a new chapter in the diagnosis and treatment of respiratory diseases
Jun 30, 2024
In today’s medical field, with the rapid development of science and technology, an inspection and treatment technology called “bronchoscope” is gradually becoming a new star in the diagnosis and treatment of respiratory diseases. Bronchoscope, the full name of which is fiber bronchoscope, is a medical device that is inserted through the mouth or nasal cavity and directly reaches the patient’s trachea and bronchi for inspection and treatment. This technology not only greatly improves the accuracy of doctors’ diagnosis of respiratory diseases, but also brings patients a safer and more efficient treatment experience.
Technical innovation highlights: Modern bronchoscopes integrate high-definition imaging and minimally invasive operations, which can clearly display the internal conditions of the airway, and lesions as small as microns cannot escape its “eyes”. At the same time, it is equipped with a special working channel, which enables sampling, biopsy, foreign body removal, local treatment and other operations to be carried out safely, greatly reducing the risks and trauma of traditional surgery.
Wide range of applications: From common chronic cough and asthma to complex lung cancer screening, infectious disease diagnosis, and even emergency airway foreign body removal, bronchoscope technology covers almost all areas of respiratory diseases. It is not only a diagnostic tool, but also a treatment method, providing patients with more diversified treatment options.
Improved patient experience: Compared with previous major surgeries that required thoracotomy, bronchoscopy examinations and treatments are mostly performed under local anesthesia, which causes less pain and faster recovery for patients. In addition, with the application of advanced sedation technology, many patients hardly feel any discomfort during the examination and can quickly return to normal life after surgery.
