Specialist Surgical Care for Lung and Chest Conditions
Thoracic surgery focuses on the diagnosis and surgical treatment of conditions affecting the lungs, pleura, mediastinum and chest wall. Patients may be referred for thoracic surgical assessment following abnormal imaging findings, lung nodules, lung cancer diagnosis or other conditions requiring specialist surgical expertise.
