How is Lung cancer diagnosed?

['Pulikani ivyo vili pa peji ili']

Kasi munthu wangamanya wuli kuti wali na kansa ya ku maphapu?

Para munthu wali na kansa ya ku maphapu, pakuŵa nthowa zinandi zakumovwilira:

1. Dokotala wangamufumbani umo mukujipulikira, usange mukukhweŵa, kweniso usange mu mbumba yinu muli munthu uyo wali na kansa ya ku maphapu.

Kweniso ŵamupimenge kuti ŵawone usange wali na vimanyikwiro vya nthenda iyi.

2. Vinthu vinyake ivyo munthu wangayezgekera: Kanandi ŵakuchita X-ray na CT scan kuti ŵawone makora umo maphapu na viwangwa viliri.

Para ŵacita nthena ŵakumanya usange munthu wali na kansa ya ku maphapu.

3. Cithukivu: Cithukivu ico munthu wakukhoska mu maphapu, ŵakumusanda na microscope kuti ŵawone usange muli maselo gha kansa.

4. Kupima viŵaro: Ŵakufumiska viŵaro vinyake vya ku maphapu na kuviwona pa microscope kuti ŵawone usange muli maselo gha kansa.

Kuti ŵamanye, ŵakuchita opareshoni ya bronchoscopy, needle biopsy, panji surgical biopsy.

5. Bronchoscopy: Munthu wakuŵika kachibungu kachoko ako kali na kamera mu mphuno panji mu mulomo na kukhira mu singo kuti wasande mphepo na maphapu.

Nthowa iyi yingagwiliskirikaso nchito pakutora viŵaro kuti ŵacite biopsy.

6. Cinthu ico cikucemeka fine-needle aspiration (FNA): Mu maphapu mukunjira sindano yambura kuwoneka makora kuti ŵasore maselo agho ŵamupima.

7. Thoracentesis: Ŵakugwiliskira nchito sindano kuti ŵatore maji agho ghali pakati pa maphapu na cifuŵa, ndipo ŵakughasanda usange muli maselo gha kansa.

8. Kupima ndopa: Nangauli kupima ndopa pawekha kungaŵa yayi cimanyikwiro cakuti munthu wali na kansa ya ku maphapu, kweni kungamovwira kumanya umo thupi lake liliri ndiposo kuwona usange wali na kansa.

9. Kuwona viwangwa, MRI, PET scan, na vinyake: Vinthu ivi vingawovwira kumanya usange kansa yasanuzgikira ku vigaŵa vinyake vya thupi.

Para ŵamanya kuti munthu wali na kansa ya ku maphapu, ŵakuchita vinyake kuti ŵamanye apo yili.

Para ŵamuchita ivi, ŵangamupima wongo, viwangwa, panji thupi.

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.
