Bronchoscopy is a minimally invasive procedure that can aid in the diagnostic evaluation of clinical signs referable to the trachea and  bronchial tree of dogs and cats.
 

A bronchoscopy is commonly used to make a diagnosis for persistent coughs, bleeding, abnormal x-rays, possible lung infection, to remove foreign bodies or masses in the airway, or if damage has been done to the airway.

​

Bronchoscopy facilitates visual examinations and bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) reducing the chance of missing diagnoses.

 

Bronchospy is an helpful tool when evaluating a pet with a possible respiratory problem that cannot otherwise be diagnosed and/or as a treatment when there are foreign bodies in the airway.
