Bronchoscopy is a technique used by chest physicians to examine the bronchi. There are two types of bronchoscope in general use and the authors explain how to conduct each examination and the advantaes and limitations. It contains a large number of photographs each accompanied by two line drawings - one illustrating the posistion of the bronchoscope in the chest and the other showing the details seen during examination. Items new in this edition include a ten per cent increase in the number of illustrations eg AIDS-related pneumonia is now included, while some of the fifth edition photographs have been replaced with better examples. All the pictures have been inverted in order to present the view which is seen through the fibreoptic bronchoscope as this is the one commonly used. Captions are duplicated, in second colour, to allow the reader to use the book for reference in either type of examinations.
