World Interventional Pulmonology Day unites leading interventional pulmonology associations worldwide to spotlight the specialty's role in improving patient care and outcomes. Chosen to mark the birthday of Gustav Kilian, a pioneer of bronchoscopy, the day honors past achievements while advancing future practice. It raises awareness of minimally invasive diagnostic and therapeutic techniques that treat complex thoracic conditions and promotes global access to high-quality interventional pulmonology care under the theme "Better Airways, Better Care, Better Outcomes." WABIP, EABIP, AABIP, APAB, TTS, TSANZ, and other clinical, industry, and patient-advocacy partners invite medical professionals, institutions, and advocacy groups to join events, educational activities, and awareness campaigns that celebrate advances in the field and support respiratory health worldwide.
