Is There A Surgery To Determine The Cause For High Eosinophil Count?

My Uncle who is almost 80 is having some kind of exploratory surgery to determine why his Eosinophil Count is so high. Have you heard of this type of surgery? I am not understanding why he would have to have a cemo treatment if the biopsy of his lungs was negative for cancer.
