Bronchial Thermoplasty

This procedure is only offered to patients with severe persistent asthma despite maximal medical management. A special catheter is used to deliver heat therapy to different areas of the airway. This procedure reduces smooth muscle surrounding the airways, thus reducing bronchospasm.
