Cover illustration for annual Temple Lung Center print and online magazine showing 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.
