Flexible Bronchoscopy

Clinics in Chest Medicine, 2013
Although bronchoscopy technology continues to evolve at a fairly rapid pace, basic procedures, such as bronchoalveolar lavage, transbronchial lung biopsy, and transbronchial needle aspiration, continue to play a paramount role in the diagnosis of bronchopulmonary diseases. Pulmonologists should be trained in these basic bronchoscopic procedures.

The role of flexible bronchoscopy

Paediatrics and Child Health, 2011
Abstract Flexible bronchoscopy is an integral part of tertiary paediatric respiratory practice. It has a mainly diagnostic role, from direct observation (anatomy and structure, airway contents, dynamics), and sampling (lavage, biopsy and brushings). There are also some therapeutic roles, mainly re-inflation of an atelectatic segment or lobe.
