The inception for this book dates back several years after both of us heard numerous times from participants in our courses the request for a comprehensive text covering all aspects of Interventional Pulmonology (IP) and providing both a pathophysiologic background as well as illustrated and clear instructions on how procedures ought to be performed. A review at that time con fi rmed that shorter texts and review articles were available, but a comprehensive textbook for the whole field was indeed missing.
