Multidisciplinary Team of Specialists:
The lung nodule program brings together a multidisciplinary team of specialists that includes:
Pulmonologists
Interventional pulmonologists
Thoracic surgeons
Radiologists
Radiation oncologists
Medical oncologists
Our interventional pulmonologists are highly trained in advanced procedures and perform electromagnetic navigation, endobronchial ultrasounds, endoscopic ultrasounds and biopsies, as well as endoscopic ultrasound-guided left adrenal gland biopsies. These advanced procedures provide patients with a one-step diagnostic biopsy and staging in lung cancer. In addition, cancer compilations are managed by tumor coring, airway stenting, airway dilatation and pleural procedures.
The multidisciplinary approach provides patients with optimal diagnosis and management of lung cancer at all stages. The multidisciplinary team meets often to diagnose, assess and design targeted customized treatment plans based on the specific characteristics of each patient’s cancer type. Treatment plans may include surgery, CyberKnife, radiation and/or chemotherapy and targeted immunotherapy.
