Advanced Diagnostic Techniques

Advanced Diagnostic Techniques
At Dr. Malay Aparnath, Pulmonology & Critical Care Medicine, we utilize the latest diagnostic technologies to accurately assess respiratory conditions. Our skilled team performs a variety of tests, including pulmonary function tests and imaging studies, to provide precise diagnoses. We understand that timely diagnosis is crucial for effective treatment and recovery.
Screening means testing for a disease when there are no symptoms or history of that disease. Doctors recommend a screening test to find a disease early, when treatment may work better.
The only recommended screening test for lung cancer is low-dose computed tomography (also called a low-dose CT scan, or LDCT). During an LDCT scan, you lie on a table and an x-ray machine uses a low dose (amount) of radiation to make detailed images of your lungs. The scan only takes a few minutes and is not painful.
Who should be screened?
The US Preventive Services Task Force (Task Force) recommends yearly lung cancer screening with LDCT for people who:
- Have a 20 pack-year or more smoking history, and
- Smoke now or have quit within the past 15 years, and
- Are between 50 and 80 years old.
A pack-year is smoking an average of one pack of cigarettes per day for one year. For example, a person could have a 20 pack-year history by smoking one pack a day for 20 years or two packs a day for 10 years.

OSA occurs when a person’s upper airway becomes blocked, causing pauses in breathing during sleep. While OSA can affect anyone, it is more common in people who are overweight or obese. Zepbound works by activating receptors of hormones secreted from the intestine (glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP)) to reduce appetite and food intake. By reducing body weight, studies show that Zepbound also improves OSA.
Zepbound’s approval for moderate to severe OSA in adults with obesity.

If you suspect you have a sleep disorder, Dr. Malay Aparnath, Pulmonology & Critical Care Medicine can help. We refer to comprehensive sleep studies to diagnose conditions such as sleep apnea. Our tailored treatment approaches aim to enhance your sleep quality and overall health, ensuring restful nights.
The main types of sleep apnea are:
- Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), which is the more common form that occurs when throat muscles relax and block the flow of air into the lungs
- Central sleep apnea (CSA), which occurs when the brain doesn't send proper signals to the muscles that control breathing
- Treatment-emergent central sleep apnea, also known as complex sleep apnea, which happens when someone has OSA — diagnosed with a sleep study — that converts to CSA when receiving therapy for OSA
If you think you might have sleep apnea; Treatment can ease your symptoms and might help prevent heart problems and other complications.

For the first time, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) cleared oral devices that treat severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). These devices offer an alternative to more common sleep apnea treatments, like continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy and surgery.
