Surgeons at Loma Linda University Health work hand in hand to perform robotically assisted bronchoscopies. This extremely precise procedure allows our physicians to guide a small video camera and use robotic-controlled surgical instruments to remove a piece of lung tissue and is then used to diagnose and stage lung cancer. This procedure allows patients to experience a minimally invasive approach, quick recovery and decreased time from diagnosis to treatment.
