Pulmonologists

Pulmonology is the field of internal medicine concerned with diseases of the respiratory tract. Doctors specializing in this field are known as pulmonologists or respiratory physicians.

Pulmonologists treat conditions including asthma, bronchitis and COPD or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, pneumonia and tuberculosis, complex disorders of the lungs and airways and respiratory failure.

Procedures performed by pulmonologists to diagnose respiratory disease include pulmonary function test, chest X-rays, CT scans, bronchoscopy and ultrasound. The most important method of treating respiratory disease is by medication with bronchodilators, steroids, antibiotics or leukotriene antagonists. Surgical treatments are usually performed by a thoracic surgeon after evaluation by a pulmonologist
