No, it can be diagnostic (to find out about something) or therapeutic (to fix something).
Some examples of therapeutic bronchoscopy would be stent placement, tumor excision, baloon occlusion, and Bronchial Thermoplasty.

No. a bronchoscopy is viewing the bronchi. Additional procedures may be required after the xray is viewed, however you can bill the additional procedure codes with a modifier is this is necessary.
Advanced Bronchoscopy Courses and Top Certificate Courses are specialized training programs designed for pulmonologists, thoracic surgeons, and healthcare professionals to enhance their expertise in bronchoscopy techniques. These courses provide hands-on training and theoretical knowledge about advanced diagnostic and therapeutic bronchoscopic procedures.
Bronchoscopy is a minimally invasive diagnostic procedure that involves the insertion of a flexible tube with a camera (bronchoscope) into the airways through the nose or mouth. Unlike surgical procedures, it does not require incisions or create openings in the skin. Instead, it allows doctors to visually inspect the bronchial tubes and collect tissue samples if necessary, all while minimizing patient trauma and recovery time.
A bronchoscopy would typically be classified as a clean-contaminated wound, as the procedure involves entering the respiratory tract, which is considered a normally sterile area of the body that could potentially introduce contaminants during the procedure.
diagnostic procedure discovers whats wrong, and therapeutic procedure treats whats wrong
diagnostic procedure discovers whats wrong, and therapeutic procedure treats whats wrong
the correct answer for this question is bronchoscopy because its an visualization of the bronchi with an scope
Bronchoscopy biopsy is typically performed in a sterile environment to minimize the risk of infection. The equipment used, including the bronchoscope, is sterilized, and the procedure is conducted under aseptic conditions. However, because the procedure involves accessing the respiratory tract, which is not sterile, there is still a potential for contamination. Thus, while steps are taken to ensure sterility, the procedure is not entirely free from infection risk.
A bronchoscopy is procedure where a doctor looks into your large airways (the trachea and bronchi). These are the main tubes that carry air into the lungs.
