Bronchoscopy is a medical procedure for patients with asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. A pulmonologist who specialises in respiratory illnesses performs this procedure. 

During bronchoscopy, a slender instrument known as a bronchoscope passes through the patient's nose or mouth and down the throat to the lungs. The bronchoscope aids in visualising the lungs and air passages, allowing the physician to identify abnormalities. 

This procedure is commonly used to diagnose and treat respiratory illnesses, including lung cancer, infections, and pulmonary fibrosis. It is recommended to fast for at least 2 hours for clear liquids and 4 hours for light meals before a bronchoscopy.

In emergencies, bronchoscopy can sometimes be performed even if the patient hasn't fasted for six hours.

Types of Bronchoscopy

Your doctor will choose the best way to perform a bronchoscopy based on your specific situation. The procedure will be safe and effective, and your doctor will take all necessary precautions. There are two main types of bronchoscopy:

1. A flexible bronchoscope is the more commonly used type of bronchoscope. Due to its flexibility, it can reach even the smaller airways in your lungs, providing a detailed view.
   It is widely used to investigate respiratory symptoms, collect tissue samples for further analysis, and administer medications or stents to narrow airways.

2. The rigid bronchoscope is not commonly used but is highly effective in certain situations. It is ideal for controlling significant bleeding in airways due to greater stability and control.
   A wider diameter rigid bronchoscope allows for easier extraction of large airway obstructions.
