Lung cancer — diagnosis & staging

Decided by tissue, not by guesswork.

A shadow on a scan is a question, not a verdict. The answer comes from tissue — and at this centre it is usually taken in one sitting, without surgery.

Signs worth a visit

A persistent cough, blood in the phlegm, unexplained weight loss, or a nodule reported on a scan.

How it is tested here

EBUS-guided needle sampling of the lymph nodes and bronchoscopy for the airway, then staging so the next doctor starts with the diagnosis made.
