Bronchoscopy is a technique of visualizing the inside of the airways for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. An instrument (bronchoscope) is inserted into the airways, usually through the nose or mouth, or occasionally through a tracheostomy. This allows the practitioner to examine the patient's airways for abnormalities such as foreign bodies, bleeding, tumors, or inflammation. Specimens may be taken from inside the lungs: biopsies, fluid (bronchoalveolar lavage), or endobronchial brushing. The construction of bronchoscopes ranges from rigid metal tubes with attached lighting devices to flexible fibreoptic instruments with realtime video equipment.

In medicine, pulmonology (aka pneumology) is the specialty that deals with diseases of the lungs and the respiratory tract. It is called chest medicine and respiratory medicine in some countries and areas. Pulmonology is generally considered a branch of internal medicine, although it is closely related to intensive care medicine when dealing with patients requiring mechanical ventilation. Chest medicine is not a specialty in itself but is an inclusive term which pertains to the treatment of diseases of the chest and contains the fields of pulmonology, thoracic surgery, and intensive care medicine. Pulmonology is concerned with the diagnosis and treatment of lung diseases, as well as secondary prevention (tuberculosis). Physicians specializing in this area are called pulmonologists. In the United Kingdom, Ireland, South Africa and Australia the term "respiratory physician" is used rather than pulmonologist. In Canada, respirology and respirologist are used. Surgery of the respiratory tract is generally performed by specialists in cardiothoracic surgery (or thoracic surgery), though minor procedures may be performed by pulmonologists. Pulmonology is closely related to critical care medicine when dealing with patients that require mechanical ventilation. As a result, many pulmonologists are certified to practice critical care medicine in addition to pulmonary medicine. There are fellowships that allow physicians to become board certified in pulmonary and critical care medicine at the same time. * Pulmonar arterioveinous aneurysm * Pulmonary agenesis * Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis, congenital * Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis * Pulmonary arterio-veinous fistula * Pulmonary artery agenesis * Pulmonary artery coming from the aorta * Pulmonary artery familial dilatation * Pulmonary atresia with ventricular septal defect * Pulmonary blastoma * Pulmonary branches stenosis * Pulmonary cystic lymphangiectasis * Pulmonary Disease, Chronic Obstructive * Pulmonary edema of mountaineers * Pulmonary fibrosis /granuloma * Pulmonary Hypertension, Secondary * Pulmonary hypertension * Pulmonary hypoplasia familial primary * Pulmonary sequestration * Pulmonary supravalvular stenosis * Pulmonary surfactant protein B, deficiency of * Pulmonary valve stenosis * Pulmonary valves agenesis * Pulmonary veins stenosis * Pulmonary veno-occlusive disease * Pulmonary venous return anomaly * Pulmonaryatresia intact ventricular septum * Pulmonic stenosis with Café au lait spot
