A member asked:
What happens after the bronchoscope? do we get results right away?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes and no: You can definitely get some results right away, since the doctor can tell you what they saw and found. Cultures taken and biopsies will not be available immediately, and you will have to wait for those.
