FAQs

Can NCCT Virtual Bronchoscopy detect a mass or tumor?

Yes. CT can identify masses or abnormal tissue involving or compressing the airway. Additional imaging or bronchoscopy may be required for tissue diagnosis.

Do I need any preparation before the examination?

Usually, no special preparation is required for a non-contrast study. Follow any instructions provided by the diagnostic centre and inform the team about relevant medical conditions.

. Will I need conventional bronchoscopy after the scan?

Depending on the findings, your doctor may recommend conventional bronchoscopy for direct visualization, biopsy, removal of a foreign body, or treatment of an airway abnormality.

Can virtual bronchoscopy detect airway narrowing?

Yes. CT and virtual airway reconstruction can demonstrate narrowing or stenosis of the trachea and larger airways and help assess its location and extent.
