Endobronchial Ultrasound Procedure

Image Description:

Close up view of an endobronchial ultrasound or EBUS procedure which is a minimally invasive procedure used to diagnose various conditions such as lung cancer, infections, and other diseases. The EBUS procedure involves using a thin flexible tube called a bronchoscope, which is passed via the mouth to the back of the throat. It reaches the windpipe and then further on into the airways. It is attached to an ultrasound probe that allows the doctor to see the lungs and lymph glands
