Every person’s journey is different, so be sure to talk with your doctor about biopsy options like robotic-assisted bronchoscopy if you’re facing a lung nodule or lung mass biopsy. | American Lung Association

A new technology recently implemented at Salina Regional Health Center is allowing doctors to identify lung cancer at earlier stages, less invasively than ever before. The Ion Robotic-Assisted Bronchoscopy system utilized by Salina Regional Pulmonologist Jorge Cedano, M.D., uses a small catheter to access nodules deep within the lung – through the mouth and airways – to examine and biopsy suspicious tissue. The procedure is performed with pathology available at the bedside to give initial evalua
