Endobronchial Ultrasound (EBUS) is a newer technique which ensures accurate and timely diagnosis for early treatment.
EBUS makes least use of invasive tools and procedures to facilitate easy procurement of fluid or tissue samples from the lungs and lymph nodes in the chest. It is used to diagnose lung infections, cancer, and other diseases that may cause swelling of lymph nodes in the chest. EBUS is highly accurate and it greatly reduces the time lag between diagnosis and treatment.
EBUS can take 40-90 minutes depending on the number of samples of lymph node that are withdrawn. EBUS makes it possible to do rapid on-site pathologic evaluation due to its high accuracy and speed. It gives access to difficult-to-reach areas better than any other procedure for diagnosis.
