KGH to provide new specialist treatment for lung cancer patients
KGH has launched a new procedure which can provide quick relief for lung cancer patients without the need for a major operation.The procedure uses a bronchoscope, a kind of tube with a camera and light inserted into the lungs, and then uses electricity to cut a tumour into pieces.
Respiratory consultant Dr George Tsaknis said: "Only a handful of respiratory centres in the UK provide this procedure in their respective endoscopy lists under sedation, and KGH is now one of them." Northamptonshire Telegraph
