Pulmonologists test lung functions in many ways, endoscope the bronchial airways, if necessary, and prescribe and monitor mechanical assistance to ventilation.

The field of sleep medicine developed because specialized knowledge of the sleeping brain and the pathological deviations of normal sleep physiology provides the physician the expertise to recognize and treat sleep-related illness. |
