Our first experience in televising bronchoscopy directly took place in December, 1955, with the cooperation of Television Nationale. Our purpose was to relay the endoscopic views which could be obtained with the “Fourestier, Gladu, Vulmiere” apparatus. The same view of the bronchi as seen by the bronchoscopist and his assistants on the screen in the operating room could thus be followed at the same time by all those outside, on their individual television sets. The experience was valuable in that it showed us that it could be done.
