A conceptual, inner space landscape of emphysemic alveoli, highlighting collapsed bronchioles and damaged alveolar air sacs. The inner walls of the alveoli air sacs rupture and create enlarged air sacs, resulting in inefficient oxygen exchange and diminished respiration. Temple Lung Center is a national leader in diagnosing and treating lung disease. A conceptual illustration of emphysemic changes in alveoli was desired for marketing purposes to both patients and the medical community.
