    What is a Culture & Sensitivity - Broncho Alveolar Lavage (BAL) - (Auto) Test?

    The Culture & Sensitivity - Bronchoalveolar Lavage (BAL) test is a diagnostic procedure utilized to collect cellular material and other components from the bronchial and alveolar regions of the lungs. This is achieved through instillation of sterile saline into the lower respiratory tract, followed by aspiration of the fluid to retrieve samples for analysis. BAL is particularly effective in diagnosing infectious diseases, including bacterial pneumonia, tuberculosis, and fungal infections, as well as neoplastic lesions. The procedure is highly valuable in the evaluation of immunocompromised patients, as it aids in detecting opportunistic infections and early-stage tuberculosis, particularly in sputum-negative cases. Compared to more invasive methods, such as needle biopsy or thoracoscopy, BAL offers a safer diagnostic approach. While it is not effective in diagnosing interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) or predicting treatment outcomes, BAL remains a crucial diagnostic tool for identifying lung infections and malignancies. Additionally, BAL can serve therapeutic purposes, such as clearing mucus plugs in conditions like asthma or cystic fibrosis. If you reside in Gurgaon, you can conveniently arrange the Culture & Sensitivity - Bronchoalveolar Lavage (BAL) test to be performed from home without the need for a laboratory visit.
