A fibreoptic bronchoscope is now commonplace as equipment for the respiratory physician. It can be used to facilitate and improve bronchography by certain technical modifications. First a fibreoptic bronchoscopy is performed by the nasal route. In this way bronchial lesions and anatomical variants can be seen. A careful aspiration of the bronchi to be examined as well as local anaesthesia bronchus by bronchus is performed. The fibreoptic scope is then withdrawn to the oropharynx, enabling a superior view of the larynx. A Métras catheter, whose angle is modified by the biopsy forceps is introduced into the free nostril and the catheter is easily passed between the vocal cords under the direct view of the fibreoptic scope. Thus, except for the Métras catheter which remains indispensable, one can pass all the long standing material that has been used in this examination. In addition the achievement of fiberoscopy and bronchography at the same time seems to us both a better technique and an appreciable saving of time. Since 1980, 40 bronchographies have been performed with this technique, with no failures.
纤维支气管镜现在是呼吸内科医生常用的设备。通过某些技术改进，它可用于促进和改进支气管造影。首先，经鼻途径进行纤维支气管镜检查。通过这种方式，可以看到支气管病变和解剖变异。对要检查的支气管进行仔细抽吸，并逐支进行支气管局部麻醉。然后将纤维支气管镜撤回至口咽，以便更好地观察喉部。将角度经活检钳调整的梅特拉导管插入空闲的鼻孔，在纤维支气管镜的直视下，导管很容易通过声带之间。因此，除了梅特拉导管仍然不可或缺外，人们可以通过所有长期以来在该检查中使用的材料。此外，我们认为同时进行纤维镜检查和支气管造影似乎是一种更好的技术，并且明显节省了时间。自1980年以来，已使用该技术进行了40次支气管造影，无一失败。
