Start NowPulmonology is the branch of medicine that focuses on the study of diseases affecting the lungs. These conditions include infectious diseases, interstitial lung diseases, airway diseases, and lung cancer; vascular diseases such as pulmonary embolism; and diseases of the pleura such as pleural effusions and pneumothorax.
In this course, students will be introduced to the basics of each group of diseases. For optimal comprehension, they are expected to have a prior understanding of cardiovascular and pulmonary physiology and know the differences between eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. Moreover, a basic understanding of the structure and general classification of bacteria and viruses, mechanisms of innate and adaptive immunity, and pathophysiology of malignancy would be helpful.
Acute pulmonary infections such as pneumonia and bronchitis are commonly encountered in the emergency room. Prompt diagnosis and management can considerably improve the prognosis.
Chronic diseases of the lungs, such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, continue to represent a considerable proportion of the total disease burden in the modern world, especially in western countries. These conditions require long-term follow-up. As patients tend to change their healthcare providers often, a competent physician should be able to understand basic disease characteristics to address patient needs and place them in the correct referral pathway (e.g., severe cases of asthma).

I am enjoying studying here, the contents are well arranged plus the videos and the questions with well explained answers Maybe about adding up the dosages of drugs plus the page should be staying longer on without internet
I appreciate the clear information given in a way that makes sense. This lecturer seems very knowledgeable and has a great voice as well, which makes it easier to listen to :)
Good Lecturer, professional appearance, good selection of high yield topics, combined with simple but important explanations on key physiopathological issues. Great experience.
Really love the videos by Proff Elliot, and I love that he explains that concepts are constantly changing but gave us the foundation to build on.

Prof Brown is just amazing at explaining concepts, I really loved his videos.
This course is outstanding and great supplemental information for my courses. It’s easy to follow and provides just enough details about each topic concept. A lot of high yield information. I’d highly recommend these courses to any FNP, PA, or Medical students!
Coronavirus. Relevant topic. Could not have been made available at a better time. Very good job 5 stars. I encourage everyone to listen to all the lectures in this track. Although, more and newer information is made available everyday, this course makes a great foundation for solid knowledge based. I like it very much. 5 Stars.
Dr.Brown makes the concept very clear to understand,very essential
the material had been given clear easy to understand .Helpful in clinical practice and updated ,which is super impoertant
sorry, my english is not so well, but it is very well here
Simple. Precise. Very good. Don t waist any time. This topic is very high yield for any medical test.
Great content, well-explained and the lecture was easy to follow. Thanks!
Very useful information and specially Dr Brown used UK guidelines was very useful and interesting
Excellent course and far detailed and in depth compared to the other topics.
It is clear, concise and in a readily avail format.
The teacher has great pronunciation! And classification made clear by extensive table.
Very comprehensive lecture with profound clinical approach. Lecture covers topics which really need deep understanding.
I like it very much because it explains in detail . I will recommend it to my fellow medical friends . Thank you Lecturio
Hello Dr Elliott, Yes this course is very complex and very interesting !!!! Especially pathogenesis part I think very important!!! As all treatment depends on it! Yes ,I do like this COVID 19 course ! I have taken so long to read those sessions as trying to compare from other sources if it had differences. That why is more interesting to study and memorable! I always love to study with differentials! Sorry about that that. As it is a new virus + with various subtypes , I am taking my time to study rather just reading ! I study to gain knowledge and skills not for a certificate Therefore I may take longer time And study all the details . This course is amazing I still think COVID-19 needs to be studied a very profoundly in order to have more effective and efficient treatment for the patients who experience this dangerous COVID-19 disease Especially I think post- COVID recovery’s very important as well. Many thanks for your great talk . Excellent explanation , and content is very informative . Dr .Gulbanu Akimgalievna
It is fine, like it very much. Very informative and useful
a good update for a recent pandemic that has negatively affected so many communities
Definitely recommend to everyone, informative and concise, looking forward to more lectures by Dr Sean
The information was specific and to the point. The power point went with the information presented. It was easy to follow and understand.
This lecture provides a good, general overview of deciding if a patient is a candidate for surgery. Though brief, it is much better explained than in review books.
This lecture provides a good overview of clinical signs and symptoms.
I like the explanation of the pathogenesis and some clarification between allergic and non-allergic asthma.
Nice summary comparing and contrasting other differential diagnoses and walk-through of a typical case of COVID.
1- The accent of the lecturer is not comprehensive, as if he tried to emphasize on his accent. Instead of TALK, he said TOK is a simple example! I’m sure if he went to the USA, they will say:” Please repeat!” I myself understand a little the British accent, but he didn’t talk only for the British students or MDs. I had to look at the subtitles. I have not this problem with others. He didn’t use a case problem like a USMLE question to develop his lecture. He simply read what it was in front of him. If I compare the quality of Respiratory lectures with Rheumatology, for example, I can say that I didn’t learn anything.
If we compare his lectures with others’, we can find that as if there is a text in front of him and he read it simply. With all respect, his accent is not very comprehensive or I am not familiar with it. I have to read the subtitles to understand what he said. Secondly, there is not any exam question type or cases. If he explained the topics through some developing questions, I think it was better.
It is helpful and updated And with presences of quiz it condence information.
I like the precise why that doctor included everything related to RX on one page, excellent!
Dr Jeremy Brown is a very good professor, he has a unique way to make you understand airway diseases. Since I am a foreigner i find it hard sometimes to understand him so i have to rewind sometimes. i would recommend this course to any medical student who wants to really understand airway diseases.
Short, easy to understand well explained , thank you very much

Great, great great , lecture,by Dr Jeremy brown,love it
fue una conferencia muy clara,organizada,los medios que utilizaron para realizar las presentaciones fueron muy enteractivos ,muy claros, buena iluminacion. por lo tanto me ayudo a enteder el tema, me parecio que los subtitulos iban muy rapido y se me dificulta mucho porque hablo solo español.
hi The couse consists many infectious lung diseases which was teaching simply and efficiently. Il
Good overview of pulmonary vascular disease , i do not know why the rating is low
Clearly presented, without redundant details. It helps a practising physician refresh their knowledge and organize it.
I found the lesson very clear and useful! Thamkyou Professor Brown!!
Very easy to understand and covered lot of important aspects
He could give more clinical examples so we can understand better, instead of being super blunt about the majority of things he says.
I find Jeremy Brown's lectures to be very engaging and easily understood. Like chatting with a new friend.
Good discussion with picture, it help me to understand.all topic discussion was good.
Very informative and easy to understand , almost all important lectures are covered
Jeremy did a fantastic job. easy to understand and grasp information due to his teaching
He answers the question right away , and explains everything amazingly
Very good I like him a lot , I can understand him very easily
Very clear explanation about transudates and exudates. Unfortunatelly, the subtitles in spanish are not very accurate.
These reviews are very helpful. I appreciate the pictures and description of the bacteria
I like the fact that this course uses the most up to date classifications as well as investigations and therapies for the diseases. I am happy to have been able to share on study groups and be on par with my colleagues who are not using lecturio for their study sessions. I am very impressed with the lecturio online courses.
this was clear to understand, while being informative. just wished they went over CXR findings a bit more
Nice session for medical students preparing for final year exams
The lecturer's way of teaching is bland and his accent is pretty confusing.
nice lecturer - quiet voice and topic covered very well, thanks
Excellent teacher , he is a very good teacher , explains all with perfect detail , i liked the image of a cross section of the bronchi and the mucociliary elevator
Good lecture. Well explained and with good illustration without much of text info in slides
Didn't mind this lecturer but i find it hard to learn with monotone voice.
I understand many things with this video class, the difference between asma and COPD, the diagnosis and treatment, etc. It was nice.
Thanks Prof, you’ve explained it so much better than the reference books I’ve found and the teachers at school, I’ve learned a lot!
Really clear and systematic way of presenting information, I appreciate it alot
I think it's very clear and precise. Also the lecture is very organized so you can remember everything that´s on the tables.
Very clear explanation ‘bite size pieces’ pace of presentation correct
Its clear and objective with details enogh to answer questions
Very well Explained, Very good faculty. All the required stuff in the lecture.
I really liked this lecture a lot and I wanted to say it because of a rude coment that I saw on the comment section
The Lecturer presents something and goes suddenly into branches and details like the student should know everything, If that was the case, I wouldn't pay for Lecturio. The Lecturer is good and he is knowledgable as it seems, but he isn't really giving me the chance to greatly learn, its just like a normal YouTube video. I paid for Lecturio to hear someone who is more organized, and takes up a notch everytime, like so many good PhDs in Pathology for example, I felt this wasn't an organized lecture at all, but rather throwing bunch of information to the student like bullets.
very in depth, clearly knows his material, displayed in logical fashion
NICELY PUT A BIT OF DIAGRAMS WOULD HAVE ADDED MORE VALUE
All high-yield facts are listed in the summary. Help me condensing my thoughts.
I Like the way he explained this subjet, to the point, short and sweet
Dr Jeremy make it very simple and very clear for the students.
Clear points, easy to understand and very effective. I also like that there are included cases.
superb mini lecture excellent organization clear and articulate stressed the importance of H and N
Clear points and much easier while they are summing up the mail idea of the lecture
Content good but delivery too fast and monotonous, with little or no emphasis on the really essential parts. Overall result is a boring lecture unfortunately.
It is very a good job as he able to simplify difficult concepts. I really love the way he explains each points. Thank you so much.
The way of teaching is boring and I felt I got lost with him
Dr. Brown’s presentations are clear, cincise, and memorable. I am usually a critical reviewer. I’m also an online learning junkie, and Dr. Brown is one of the best. I respect all of my med school professors, but I am proud to say that I learned about lung cancer from Dr. Jeremy Brown.
Dr Brown delivers the content in a very effective way, easy to remember and also the information is up to date in accordance with recent Guidelines...
The lectures are very useful and valuable. The explanation is very clear.
VERY GOOD LECTURE AD SDFG DFRD SDESSA SEDSF DFD SDFFG
The lectures are interesting. I enjoyed listening to them. They are comprehensive and straightforward.
the test sometimes is not related to the presented lecture
Loved how brief and concise they were , easy to understand
who doesn't love a great british accent?! I wish everyone had a british accent. Also very knowledgable. Thanks so much for your contribution as well as all of the other contributors. I am thoroughly pleased.
I expected the pulmonary aspergillosis in brief too. However , there is concise pulmonary infection lecture.
Both questions and speech are excellent. The constant change between small details and the broad topic simplifies (and gives at least for me awareness of the affected organs in PE).
i put this rate because it was really complite and in a vocabulary really simple, easy to undertant. i also like the questions durring the class it help us to remember and practice the information.
Good The pace was fast for me. Would prefer more lectures that can be made accessible for free please.
GREETINGS; I chose this rating 'coz there is always scope for perfection .What i liked about this course was JEREMY Sir's style of teaching n his core understanding of the subject n the way he presented it.
Easy to understand ILD lecture . Usually a complicated chapter but not for this time. Thanks
