期刊介绍：

The Jornal Brasileiro de Pneumologia is the official organ of the Brazilian Thoracic Society. It continues the Jornal de Pneumologia, which was published from 1975 until 2003.
The objective of the Jornal Brasileiro de Pneumologia is the publication of scientific papers regarding Pulmonology and related areas of specialization. In Brazil, the Journal is distributed to all members of the Society, as well as to medical school libraries and major hospitals. In addition, some foreign institutions, most located in Latin America, receive copies of the Journal.
Through December of 2007, the Jornal Brasileiro de Pneumologia was published every two months. However, as of January of 2008, the Journal became a monthly publication and returned to be a bimonthly publication in January of 2010. The Board of Directors of the Brazilian Thoracic Society has therefore decided to cease the publication of special supplements. Supplemental topics will be addressed through the incorporation of shorter, more objective articles into regular issues of the Journal.
The abbreviated title of the Journal is J. bras. pneumol.. This abbreviation should be used in bibliographies, footnotes, references and legends.
