Overview Pulmonology

Pulmonology is an area of medicine focusing on the pulmonary system, also called the respiratory system. The pulmonary system includes the lungs, bronchi, bronchioles, trachea and all blood vessels and other components that are involved with respiration and breathing. Pulmonology is a branch of internal medicine which is linked to critical care, and is sometimes called respirology, respiratory medicine, or chest medicine.

Pulmonologists are doctors specializing in lung problems. They diagnose, treat and manage lung conditions in adults such as asthma, lung diseases, chest infections, chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder (COPD), pulmonary hypertension and more.
