Publisher's Synopsis
This practical manual covers the handling of the fiberoptic bronchoscope, the range of its use in diagnosis, and its use as a therapeutic tool in conjunction with a laser. Extensive case histories and illustrations, including four-color and black-and-white photographs and specially-designed explanatory color diagrams, enhance this valuable guide. Dr. Clarke first introduced the fibersope to Great Britain and was a pioneer with its use under local rather than general anesthesia.
