Laser Therapy
Laser therapy in interventional pulmonology involves using focused light energy to treat respiratory conditions. This technique can precisely target and remove abnormal tissue, such as tumors, or help clear obstructed airways by vaporizing excess tissue. The laser's precision minimizes damage to surrounding healthy tissue, leading to less bleeding and faster recovery. It's often used for conditions like lung cancer or severe airway blockages, providing a less invasive option compared to traditional surgery. Overall, laser therapy enhances breathing and helps manage serious lung issues effectively.

Laser therapy is a medical treatment that uses focused light beams (lasers) to target specific areas of the body. It can help reduce pain, inflammation, and promote healing. The laser energy interacts with tissues, stimulating cell growth and enhancing blood flow. This treatment is often used for conditions like arthritis, wounds, and skin issues, as well as in dental and cosmetic procedures. It is generally non-invasive, meaning it doesn’t require surgery, and many patients experience minimal discomfort and quick recovery times.
