Thoracic Surgery

Thoracic Surgery Procedures

There are various methods developed for the diagnosis and treatment of the mentioned diseases. Treatment methods may change and be developed according to the developing technology. As in all departments, it is vitally important to perform correct diagnosis and treatment in thoracic surgery departments as well. Various tests and examinations can be applied for diagnosis such as blood and urinalysis, visualization techniques (MR, tomography, chest x-ray, ultrasound) and biopsy. After the examination and tests are applied to the patient, possible treatment methods and surgical options are evaluated. In the thoracic surgery department, it is also possible for the patient to get medical treatment besides the surgical procedures. It is possible to say that robotic technology is used in most of the surgical procedures performed by the Thoracic Surgery department. At the same time, minimally invasive surgical techniques are used in the majority of operations that are performed in the thoracic surgery department.
