Lebanon VAMC│New bronchoscopy machine helps battle lung cancer

Veterans at Lebanon VA Medical Center have another weapon in the arsenal in the war against lung cancer, the leading cause of cancer death regardless of gender. A new bronchoscopy machine allows doctors to use 3D imaging to navigate directly to the suspected area in the lung for staging and diagnosis. A bronchoscopy is a procedure that allows doctors to look inside the lungs with a small camera. Early detection of lung cancer is crucial as it leads to increased survival. If you are a current patient here, speak with your primary care provider about your risk for lung cancer or a possible referral to the pulmonary specialist. The pulmonary clinic is in Building 17 on the ground floor. If you are a Central Pennsylvania Veteran interested in receiving free or low-cost health care through Lebanon VA Medical Center please call 717-272-6621 ext. 6000 and someone will assist you.
