Resources for Bronchiectasis

At the beginning of my career I was more focused on few respiratory conditions and diseases such as Asthma, COPD, Cystic Fibrosis and Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome.  With more experience, I am more exposed to variety of conditions that directly and indirectly impact the respiratory system.  In my journey I have realized that bronchiectasis is a common condition which I did not pay much attention to as I viewed it a “secondary consequence” or complication.  This condition involves abnormal widening of airways.  In my attempt to better understand this condition, I searched the web; Here is a list of great resources that will help you review this condition:
