Diagnosis of tracheal collapse is made
by a combination of clinical signs, thoracic
radiographs (
chest x-rays) and fluoroscopy (real - time xrays displayed on a monitor).
Costs for the diagnostic work - up will be assumed
by you (clinical assessment, minimal data base (CBC and biochemical panel),
chest radiographs, BALF collection and cytology, lung biopsy with histopathology).
