Condition	OCT method	Findings	Suggested treatments
Chronic bronchitis	Endoscopic	Increased volume of submucosal glands; central airway inflammation[133-135]	Investigations directed towards asthma overlap syndrome; targeted inhaled steroids
Emphysema	Anatomical OCT	Can visualise collapsibility dynamically[136]	Bronchodilators; smoking cessation
