Written by some of the world's leading practitioners - and pioneers- in the field, Thoracic Endoscopy is the firstup-to-the-minute, expert reference for clinicians with a solidfoundation in diagnostic bronchoscopy and chest medicine needing toextend their clinical expertise in response to two decades of rapiddevelopment.
Thoracic Endoscopy covers four key areas ofpractice:
* * advanced diagnostic bronchoscopy
* the latest techniques for interventional bronchoscopy-- including the traditional rigid bronchoscopy techniques,ablative instruments and stents -- and a discussion ofendobronchial lung reduction and gene therapy
* a window to the pleura, covering the field ofpleuroscopy and the advances in diagnosis and treatment
* clinical problems and methodologies, and strategiesfor solving them using interventional techniques
Thoracic Endoscopy presents the only coherent guide tothe full range of techniques and practice patterns, and is theessential reference for both experienced interventionalpulmonologists and students beginning to practice in thisrapidly-developing field.
