Respiratory Medicine focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and management of diseases affecting the lungs and breathing system. This includes conditions such as asthma, COPD, pneumonia, tuberculosis, bronchitis, lung infections, and sleep-related breathing disorders. Specialists use advanced tools like pulmonary function tests, chest X-rays, CT scans, and bronchoscopy to evaluate lung health.
The goal is to ensure healthy breathing, early detection of lung diseases, and effective long-term management through medication, therapy, and patient education.
