FAQs on Pulmonary Medicine

What Is Pulmonary Medicine?

Pulmonology is a specialized field of medicine dedicated to treating conditions of the lungs. Some of the most common conditions our pulmonologists treat at 澳门金沙手机官方官网 include:

  • Asthma
  • Chronic obstructive lung disease (COPD)
  • Chronic bronchitis
  • Lung cancer
  • Respiratory infections
  • Cystic fibrosis
  • Emphysema
  • Occupational lung diseases

How Is Lung Disease Diagnosed?

Diseases and conditions of the lungs are usually diagnosed using a pulmonary function test (PFT). PFTs consist of a group of tests used to measure a variety of factors that will help your doctor understand what’s happening in your lungs. Some of the most commonly performed PFTs are:

  • Spirometry, which measures the amount of air you breathe
  • Plethysmography, which measures your lung volume
  • Diffusion capacity tests, which measure how well the tiny air sacs in your lungs (alveoli) are working

Can A Pulmonologist Perform Surgery?

While your pulmonologist may recommend surgery as part of your diagnosis, they likely will not perform the surgery themselves. However, a pulmonologist may perform a lung biopsy, which involves taking a sample of your lung tissue to evaluate for diagnosis.
