- In 1821, Dr. Rene Laennec, known as the father of chest medicine, thanks in part to his invention of the stethoscope, described bronchitis in terms of emphysema and chronic bronchitis[2]
- John Hutchinson, by inventing Spirometer in 1846, established a new era for diagnosis of lung diseases by measuring the lung capacities
