K.D. Medical College-Hospital and Research Center is continuously expanding its state-of-the-art medical facilities. Strong arrangements are being made to ensure that the people of the Braj region do not have to flee to metropolitan cities for treatment. Recently, an endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS) machine was installed. This state-of-the-art machine will make it easier to diagnose lung and respiratory diseases. It will also make it easier to diagnose lung disease and cancer.

Dr. S.K. Bansal, Head of the Department of Respiratory Medicine, stated that the institute’s Chairman, Mr. Manoj Agarwal, is a proponent of change in the medical field. Thanks to the efforts of Chairman Mr. Manoj Agarwal, the endobronchial ultrasound machine installed at K.D. Hospital is the first such machine not only in Mathura but in the entire Braj region. He explained that this machine will now make it easier to diagnose lung and respiratory diseases. It uses ultrasound along with bronchoscopy to visualize the airway wall and surrounding structures. This provides a 360-degree view, and ultrasound images are used to identify abnormal lung nodules or large lesions. This allows for easier detection of lung disease or cancer.

Dr. S.K. Bansal states that the endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS) machine is not only safe for medical treatment but also has a low risk of bleeding. Dr. S.K. Bansal states that the endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS) machine is a new diagnostic method of radial examination used in bronchoscopy. Compared to other treatments, EBUS patients have the lowest rate of complications, such as pneumothorax, intercostal tube insertion, and bleeding.

Dr. Shubham Dwivedi (MD, Interventional Pulmonologist) explains that the EBUS (Endobronchial Ultrasound) machine is an advanced ultrasound machine attached to a bronchoscope, used to take tissue samples from the lungs and surrounding lymph nodes and view internal structures. It is used to diagnose lung cancer, infections, and inflammatory diseases, locate their location, and perform biopsies (tissue examinations) without traditional surgery.

The EBUS machine is attached to an ultrasound probe at the end of the bronchoscope, which uses sound waves to produce high-quality images of the lungs and lymph nodes. This process helps doctors see abnormal areas that are not visible on other tests, such as X-rays or CT scans. Dr. Shubham Dwivedi says that this machine is used to diagnose and prevent the spread of lung cancer (staging). It has fewer risks and complications than traditional surgery. This machine can detect even small defects that are invisible to conventional imaging methods.
