The main goal of the course is to provide students with the pathophyisiologic basis to understand respiratory and pleural diseases, in order to make correlations between the inner mechanisms of diseases and their clinical expression. The student will be able to interpret symptoms, signs and laboratory tests and radiologic and endoscopic investigations. Therapeutic approach and follow-up will also be discussed.


Diagnosis and treatment of 1) chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases, 2) respiratory failure, 3) interstitial lung diseases, 4) lung infections, 5) respiratory endoscopy and pleural procedures.




  • diagnosis and treatment of chronic obstructive respiratory diseases (asthma and COPD) during stable and acute phase; principles of smoking cessation techniques and treatments;

  • differential diagnosis of respiratory failure and relative treatment;

  • classification and differential diagnosis of interstitial lung diseases with focus on specific treatments;
