Respiratory Medicine
Introduction of the Department
The Department of Respiratory Medicine deals with chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases, infectious diseases, allergic and immune diseases, lung cancer, pulmonary vascular diseases, and pleural and mediastinal diseases as well as intensive care. Allergy and immune diseases have been increasing in recent years, and the Department of Respiratory Medicine has helped patients based on a new understanding of asthma and introduction of new treatments. Diagnosis of interstitial pulmonary disease requires a shorter time due to the fact that tissues required for the thoracoscope can be obtained without surgery.
With the development of anti-cancer drugs, patients suffer from less pain. In addition, with a rise in the awareness of triggering factors of pulmonary vascular diseases, it becomes possible to prevent them and to diagnose them more easily. In addition, for intensive care, with the higher understanding about ventilators and their development, and development of new treatment strategies, its survival rate has been increased.
