By the mid-1980s, the flexible fiberoptic bronchoscope had become an indispensable instrument within the pulmonology and anesthesia communities.
It is therefore considered a specialisation within the area of pulmonology.
As mentioned above, pulmonology is closely related to critical care medicine when dealing with patients that require mechanical ventilation.
It is a multidisciplinary research group involving internal medicine, pulmonology, cardiology, immunology, and genomics.
These specialties include, but are not limited to, gastroenterology, neurology, pulmonology, oncology, cardiology, and radiology.
Specialized services include cardiology, pulmonology, oncology, radiology, urology, thoracic surgery and vascular surgery.
Interventional pulmonology is a relatively new field within pulmonary medicine that deals with the use of procedures such as bronchoscopy to treat several pulmonary diseases.
