M.D. Respiratory Medicine
M.D. Respiratory Medicine focuses on the diagnosis and management of pulmonary and respiratory diseases, including comprehensive tuberculosis care, throughout the three-year residency programme. Residents train in the chest and TB department, supported by a dedicated PFT lab and spiral CT, and actively participate in the DOTS programme for structured TB treatment monitoring. This combination provides residents with strong exposure to both common respiratory illnesses and more complex pulmonary cases that require specialised, evidence-based management strategies. Respiratory ICU rotations further strengthen critical care skills.
