The pulmonary cancer, chronic bronchitis, bronchial asthma and spontaneous pneumothorax increased in recent years.
The measurement of respiratory resistance by oscillation method is quite useful to interpret clinical symptom in the chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
The bronchial washing is useful method to the patient of bronchial asthma.
