Flexible bronchoscopy is usually performed at a tertiary care facility in a general endoscopy unit or a specially designed bronchoscopy suite. The procedure can also be performed outside the designated facility if the qualified personnel and required equipment can be mobilized. In this review, we discuss the essentials of a modern bronchoscopy suite based on the available information from the literature.
