Pulmonology
Key aspects of pulmonology:
Focus:
Pulmonology specializes in the respiratory system, encompassing the lungs, airways, and related structures.
Conditions treated:
Pulmonologists treat a wide range of respiratory conditions, including asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), emphysema, bronchitis, pneumonia, lung cancer, and sleep disorders like apnea.
Role of Pulmonologists:
Pulmonologists diagnose, manage, and treat respiratory illnesses. They also provide respiratory care and support in intensive care units.
Interconnectedness:
Pulmonology is often closely related to cardiology, as many heart and lung conditions share similar symptoms.
Further Specializations:
Pulmonologists may further specialize in areas like pulmonary fibrosis, asthma, COPD, or specific patient populations like pediatrics or geriatrics.
