About the department
The Department of Pulmonology at the Meoclinic Hospital Berlin provides the full range of diagnostic examinations and effective conservative treatment of diseases of the respiratory tract and lungs. The department's specialists successfully deal with the treatment of common pulmonary diseases, and also have vast experience in managing patients with rare pathologies. The department's pride is a progressive technical base that allows the doctors to carry out high-precision diagnostic examinations of the respiratory system. The department has devices for X-ray scanning, spiroergometry, body plethysmography, computed tomography, bronchoscopy and pulmonary function tests. The treatment regimen is developed for each patient on an individual basis, thanks to which the doctors of the medical facility achieve the best therapeutic results. In the fight against pulmonary diseases, the department's specialists most often use drug therapy. The doctors also resort to endoscopic procedures and other therapeutic methods. The Head Physician of the department is Prof. Dr. med. Christian Witt.
The department's specialists often deal with the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. This is a slowly progressive disease in which the patient develops inflammation of the lower respiratory tract and bronchial obstruction. As of today, the specific causes of the development of the disease have not been established, but doctors believe that smoking and unfavorable environmental conditions are the main risk factors. The diagnostic process for suspected chronic obstructive pulmonary disease begins with a thorough examination of the patient's medical history. This is followed by spiroergometry and body plethysmography. In some cases, X-ray and/or computed tomography, bronchoscopy are also required. As for the treatment tactics, first of all, the department's specialists recommend the patient to give up smoking if he has this bad habit. In most cases, doctors prescribe drug therapy that includes the intake of drugs individually selected by the doctor. Inhalation and oxygen therapy are often used. Special physiotherapy procedures also give a good effect.
The doctors of the medical facility are rightly proud of their rich experience in the treatment of lung cancer, which today is one of the most common types of oncology. Smoking is a key risk factor for developing cancer. At the initial appointment, the pulmonologist studies the patient's medical history and carries out a clinical examination with auscultation of the lungs and a visual assessment of the state of the lymph nodes. If the doctor suspects lung cancer after examination, then further diagnostic measures may include X-ray scanning, computed tomography, bronchoscopy, ultrasound scanning and skeletal bone scintigraphy. The three key techniques in the fight against lung cancer are surgical removal of the malignant tumor or lobe of the affected lung, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy. The specific treatment regimen is prescribed taking into account the patient's individual clinical case, the stage of the oncological proces, the presence or absence of metastases, and other important factors. The department's specialists also provide palliative care to patients with the advanced stage of cancer. The goal of palliative care is to relieve symptoms and improve the patient's quality of life.
The department's medical team also specializes in the conservative treatment of bronchial asthma, bronchitis, pneumonia, cystic fibrosis, alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency, sarcoidosis, pleurisy and other pulmonary diseases, including rare ones. The vast clinical experience of the department's doctors allows them to determine the nature of pathological lesions of the lungs and respiratory tract with the highest accuracy, prescribing the most effective treatment so that the patient can quickly get rid of the disease and return to normal life.
The department's main clinical activities include:
- Diagnostics and treatment of bronchial asthma
