bronchiectasis
This term is a specialized medical diagnosis used primarily in clinical settings. It describes a structural pathology of the lungs rather than a temporary illness, implying a permanent change to the bronchial tubes. Because it is a chronic condition, it is typically discussed in the context of long-term management, physiotherapy, and respiratory health.
As a medical condition name, this noun is uncountable. It refers to the state of having the disease rather than a discrete object that can be counted. One does not have "three bronchiectases"; instead, the condition is described as being mild, severe, localized, or diffuse.
