Specialized Services 

Interventional Pulmonary Medicine
Our expertise includes the most advanced diagnostic and therapeutic interventions, including:

• Fluoroscopic Bronchoscopy
• Airway Stenting
• Brachytherapy
• Photodynamic Therapy

Most of these procedures are performed with bronchoscopy, a procedure that allows our specialists to look inside your lungs through a thin viewing instrument called a bronchoscope.  Bronchoscopy is used for both accurate diagnosis and treatment of a variety of lung conditions.
