In this paper, the structure of a semi-automatic non-invasive harmless diagnostic system for bronchial asthma and other bronchopulmonary diseases are discussed. The components of the diagnostic system are discussed. It is shown that it is possible to design a diagnostic system in a portable compact design by using a laser displacement sensor instead of a bulky positioning system. The advantages of the proposed system are the simplicity of the implementation of the diagnostic system and examination, harmlessness, non-invasiveness of the examination procedure, no need to perform breathing maneuvers. These advantages allow us to consider the proposed system as an addition to the existing methods of diagnosing bronchial asthma, as well as an express method for diagnosing bronchopulmonary diseases or a system for periodically monitoring the health of a patient undergoing inpatient treatment or not having permanent access to a large medical center equipped with expensive equipment.
