Key Features
Fiberoptic bronchoscopy is now frequently used to investigate and treat various pulmonary diseases especially the bronchogenic carcinoma.
Professor Rajendra Prasad brought out this beautifully illustrated atlas out of his long experience of using fiberoptic bronchoscope in over 5,000 cases in last 25 years.
This book was written with the aim of defining an approach to the diagnosis of various pulmonary diseases encountered in day-to-day clinical practice essentially based on abnormal bronchoscopic findings.
The text consists of two parts, the first, a practical introduction to the art of bronchoscopy and the second a concise clinical history, chest X-ray, computed tomography (CT) and bronchoscopic pictures of interesting cases selected out of 2,000 bronchoscopic procedures done in last 10 years.
The first part also specifies all practical issues related to performance of fiberoptic bronchoscopy including indications, contraindications, normal and abnormal bronchoscopic findings, specimen collection and related complications.
It also includes a chapter on pediatric bronchoscopy and future advances in fiberoptic bronchoscopy.

Features
Following a brief introduction, chapters cover the technical aspects of the procedure, including equipment, photography, and maintenance of the bronchoscope, and describe the normal anatomy of the tracheobronchial tree.
Chapters on specimen collection and handling are very useful for beginners in the field. The last two chapters are dedicated to benign and malignant lung diseases with companion radiographs. This is a very useful resource for endoscopists to understand the findings in health and disease states.
Experienced bronchoscopists will find this atlas to be a useful refresher.
