What Our Pulmonologists Review

Lung conditions, from ILD subtypes to lung cancer staging, depend on precise interpretation of CT imaging and pulmonary function data. Our review verifies both the diagnosis and whether the proposed treatment fits the evidence.

biotech

Pathology & Biopsy Review

Re-evaluation of bronchoscopic or CT-guided lung biopsy results, confirming diagnosis of ILD, infection, malignancy, or other pulmonary conditions.

radiology

Chest Imaging Review

Expert interpretation of CT chest, HRCT, and PET-CT findings, verifying radiologic diagnosis and identifying patterns that may change management.

monitor_heart

Pulmonary Function Analysis

Review of spirometry, DLCO, and bronchoprovocation testing to assess the pattern and severity of lung function impairment.

medication

Treatment Protocol

Assessment of your current regimen for ILD, COPD, asthma, or pulmonary hypertension against ATS/ERS and GOLD guidelines.

lab_research

Lung Cancer Staging & Options

For lung cancer, independent review of staging, molecular profiling (EGFR, ALK, PD-L1), and whether the full range of recognised treatment options has been considered.

groups

Multidisciplinary Input

For complex or progressive lung disease, your case draws on input from interventional pulmonology, thoracic surgery, and pulmonary critical care.

When to Seek a Pulmonology Second Opinion

  • check_circleYou have been diagnosed with interstitial lung disease (IPF, sarcoidosis, hypersensitivity pneumonitis) and want to confirm the diagnosis and treatment approach
  • check_circleA lung nodule or mass has been found and you want an independent assessment of management recommendations
  • check_circleYou have been diagnosed with lung cancer and want a second view on staging, molecular testing, and treatment options
  • check_circleYour COPD or asthma is poorly controlled despite treatment and you want to explore alternatives
  • check_circleYou have been recommended for lung surgery (lobectomy, wedge resection) and want a second view before consenting
  • check_circleYour breathing symptoms remain unexplained after standard workup

Frequently Asked Questions

How does a pulmonology second opinion from the U.S. work?

expand_more

Upload your CT chest images (or HRCT), pulmonary function tests, biopsy pathology, bronchoscopy reports, and current treatment plan. A U.S. board-certified pulmonologist reviews all materials and delivers a written second opinion within 14 days. For complex cases requiring direct discussion, a live video consultation is also available.

Can a U.S. pulmonologist review my HRCT images remotely?

expand_more

Yes. High-resolution CT imaging can be shared digitally and is routinely reviewed remotely by pulmonologists. HRCT pattern interpretation is central to diagnosing ILD and other diffuse lung diseases, and expert remote review is well-established practice.

What if my diagnosis of ILD changes after the U.S. review?

expand_more

ILD has multiple subtypes (IPF, NSIP, COP, sarcoidosis, hypersensitivity pneumonitis) and correct subtype identification directly affects treatment. A different diagnosis from the U.S. review gives you a documented basis for discussing a revised treatment plan with your doctor in India.

Which pulmonary conditions do you cover?

expand_more

We cover the full range of pulmonary medicine including IPF, sarcoidosis, hypersensitivity pneumonitis, NSIP, COPD, asthma, bronchiectasis, pulmonary hypertension, lung cancer (NSCLC, SCLC, mesothelioma), lung nodule evaluation, and post-COVID respiratory complications.

How long does the review take?

expand_more

Most pulmonology second opinions are delivered within 14 days of receiving complete records. You will be notified if additional imaging or test results are needed before review begins.
