Pulmonoloogid ehk kopsuarstid tegelevad kopsu- ja hingamisteede haigustega (k.a tuberkuloos, pleura- ja keskseinandi haigused, uneaegsed hingamishäired ja hingamisteede allergilised seisundid).
Major diseases of the respiratory system are respiratory failure, asthma and emphysema, as well as infectious diseases such as pneumonia, tuberculosis, pleurisy and pulmonary abscess, or tumor syndromes such as lung cancer or pleural cancer.
Mr A. Rasidakis, Professor of Pulmonology at Athens University, recently announced that cases of bronchial asthma, in any event in Greece, have doubled over the last two years, especially amoung young children.

The term is derived from the Latin word pulmō, pulmōnis ("lung") and the Greek suffix -λογία, -logia ("study of").
