How much does it cost to check for throat cancer

How much does it cost to check for laryngeal cancer? Experts say that the cost of checking for laryngeal cancer is not fixed. It depends on the examination method chosen by the patient, the hospital, and the patient's own condition. Therefore, there is no fixed answer to this question. Let's take a look at the examination methods for laryngeal cancer.

1. Laryngoscopy

Through throat examination, we can find out whether there are any changes in the patient's larynx, as well as the condition of the vocal cords, epiglottis, etc. We can find local neoplasms, ulcers, etc. We can observe the size of the lesion, the location of the lesion and the morphology of the tumor, and we can also take biopsy tissue for pathological examination. Therefore, laryngoscopy is an important diagnostic method for this disease. Therefore, patients with abnormal symptoms in the larynx should be examined in time.

2. CT scan and X-ray examination

3. Biopsy

What are the examination methods for laryngeal cancer? Laryngeal cancer can be diagnosed through or tissue examination. If multiple biopsy tissues are negative, the patient may not be able to rule out laryngeal cancer by taking biopsy tissue for pathological examination through laryngoscopy, so a laryngeal fissure biopsy can be performed.
