Kansa ya mapafu hugunduliwaje?

Kansa ya mapafu hugunduliwa kupitia mchanganyiko wa vipimo na taratibu, ambavyo vinaweza kutia ndani:

1. Historia ya kitiba na uchunguzi wa kimwili: Daktari atauliza juu ya dalili zako, historia ya kuvuta sigareti, na historia ya familia ya kansa ya mapafu.

Pia watafanya uchunguzi wa kimwili ili kuchunguza dalili zozote za ugonjwa huo.

2. Uchunguzi wa picha: Uchunguzi wa X-ray wa kifua na uchunguzi wa kompyuta (CT) hutumiwa kwa kawaida kutengeneza picha za kina za mapafu na miundo inayozunguka.

Uchunguzi huo waweza kusaidia kugundua kasoro, kama vile uvimbe au noduli, ambazo zaweza kuonyesha kuwepo kwa kansa ya mapafu.

3. Cytology ya sputum: Mfano wa sputum yako (mucus iliyotokana na kikohozi kutoka mapafu) huchunguzwa chini ya darubini ili kutafuta chembe za kansa.

4. Biopsia: Mfano wa tishu ya mapafu huondolewa na kuchunguzwa chini ya darubini ili kuamua ikiwa kuna chembe za kansa.

Hii inaweza kufanywa kupitia bronchoscopy, needle biopsy, au biopsy upasuaji.

5. Bronchoscopy: Bomba nyembamba, lenye mwangaza lenye kamera huingizwa kupitia pua au kinywa na chini ya koo ili kuchunguza njia za kupumua na mapafu.

Utaratibu huu unaweza pia kutumiwa kukusanya sampuli za tishu kwa ajili ya upasuaji.

6. Uchochezi wa sindano nyembamba (FNA): Sindano nyembamba huingizwa ndani ya noduli au molekuli ya mapafu ili kukusanya sampuli ya chembe za kuchunguzwa.

7. Thoracentesis: Kioevu huondolewa katika nafasi iliyo kati ya mapafu na ukuta wa kifua kwa kutumia sindano, kisha kioevu hicho huchunguzwa ikiwa kuna chembe za kansa.

8. Uchunguzi wa damu: Ingawa uchunguzi wa damu peke yake hauwezi kugundua kansa ya mapafu, unaweza kusaidia kuamua afya ya jumla ya mgonjwa na kutambua kasoro zozote zinazoweza kuonyesha kuwepo kwa kansa.

9. Uchunguzi wa mifupa, MRI, uchunguzi wa wanyama, na uchunguzi mwingine: Uchunguzi huo waweza kutumiwa kuamua ikiwa kansa imeenea kwenye sehemu nyingine za mwili.

Mara baada ya kansa ya mapafu kugunduliwa, vipimo vya ziada vyaweza kufanywa ili kuamua hatua ya kansa, ambayo husaidia kuongoza maamuzi ya matibabu.

Uchunguzi huo waweza kutia ndani uchunguzi zaidi wa picha, kama vile uchunguzi wa CT wa ubongo, uchunguzi wa mifupa, au uchunguzi wa positron emission tomography (PET).

Kanusho la dhima: matibabu

Tovuti hii hutolewa kwa madhumuni ya elimu na habari tu na si kutoa ushauri wa matibabu au huduma za kitaaluma.

Habari inayotolewa haipaswi kutumiwa kugundua au kutibu tatizo la afya au ugonjwa, na wale wanaotafuta ushauri wa kibinafsi wa kitiba wanapaswa kushauriana na daktari aliye na leseni.

Tafadhali kumbuka mtandao wa neva ambao hutengeneza majibu ya maswali, ni hasa usio sahihi linapokuja maudhui ya nambari. Kwa mfano, idadi ya watu waliogunduliwa na ugonjwa fulani.

Daima kutafuta ushauri wa daktari wako au mtoa huduma nyingine ya afya waliohitimu kuhusu hali ya matibabu. Kamwe kupuuza ushauri wa matibabu ya kitaaluma au kuchelewesha katika kutafuta yake kwa sababu ya kitu umesoma kwenye tovuti hii. Kama unafikiri unaweza kuwa na dharura ya matibabu, piga simu 911 au kwenda chumba cha dharura karibu mara moja. Hakuna uhusiano daktari-mgonjwa ni kuundwa na tovuti hii au matumizi yake.

How is lung cancer diagnosed?

Lung cancer is diagnosed through a combination of tests and procedures, which may include:

1. Medical history and physical examination: The doctor will ask about your symptoms, smoking history, and family history of lung cancer.

They will also perform a physical examination to check for any signs of the disease.

2. Imaging tests: Chest X-rays and computed tomography (CT) scans are commonly used to create detailed images of the lungs and surrounding structures.

These tests can help detect abnormalities, such as tumors or nodules, that may indicate the presence of lung cancer.

3. Sputum cytology: A sample of your sputum (mucus coughed up from the lungs) is examined under a microscope to look for cancer cells.

4. Biopsy: A sample of lung tissue is removed and examined under a microscope to determine if cancer cells are present.

This can be done through a bronchoscopy, needle biopsy, or surgical biopsy.

5. Bronchoscopy: A thin, lighted tube with a camera is inserted through the nose or mouth and down the throat to examine the airways and lungs.

This procedure can also be used to collect tissue samples for biopsy.

6. Fine-needle aspiration (FNA): A thin needle is inserted into the lung nodule or mass to collect a sample of cells for examination.

7. Thoracentesis: Fluid is removed from the space between the lungs and chest wall using a needle, and the fluid is then examined for cancer cells.

8. Blood tests: While blood tests alone cannot diagnose lung cancer, they can help determine the overall health of the patient and identify any abnormalities that may indicate the presence of cancer.

9. Bone scan, mri, pet scan, and other tests: These tests may be used to determine if the cancer has spread to other parts of the body.

Once lung cancer is diagnosed, additional tests may be performed to determine the stage of the cancer, which helps guide treatment decisions.

These tests may include more imaging tests, such as a CT scan of the brain, bone scan, or positron emission tomography (PET) scan.
