SARS virus particle, coloured transmission electron micrograph (TEM). Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) is an often fatal lung disease that first appeared in China in 2002

Hantavirus bursting from a cell
Hantavirus infection. Coloured transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of hantavirus particles (yellow/green) bursting from a human cell

Hantavirus. Coloured transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of a hantavirus. This causes haemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) or Hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS)

TB bacteria infecting macrophages, SEM
TB bacteria infecting macrophages. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacteria (orange) invading macrophage white blood cells (pink)

Alveoli in the lung, artwork
Alveoli in the lung. Computer artwork showing the alveoli (spheres) and bronchioles (tubes) of the lungs. The alveoli are the tiny air sacs of the lungs where gases are exchanged between the air in

Collapse (atelectasis) of lung, X-ray
Coloured X-ray (front view) of the chest in a 58 year old patient showing collapse (atelectasis) of part of the upper lobe of a lung (orange, at left)

Lung abscess, CT scan
Coloured computed tomography (CT) scan in axial view of the lung fields in a 47 year old patient showing the presence of an abscess (black) in each lung

Pulmonary lobule, artwork
Pulmonary lobule. Computer artwork of a section through an area of lung tissue. A pulmonary lobule is a unit of lung tissue that includes a bronchiole, alveolar ducts, sacs, and alveoli

Tuberculosis diagnosis, 19th century. Artwork showing the French physician Rene Laennec (1781-1826), at the Necker Hospital, Paris, France, examining a patient (left)

Tuberculosis lymphadenopathy, X-ray
Coloured X-ray (front view) of the chest in a 14 year old male patient, showing inflamed lymph nodes (lymphadenopathy, yellow, at centre right and left) caused by tuberculosis (TB)

Asthma inhaler use, artwork
Asthma inhale use. Artwork showing how to use an asthma inhaler. Asthma is a condition in which the small airways (bronchioles) in the lungs constrict, making it difficult to breathe

Emphysema, artwork
Emphysema. Artwork showing the lungs with a detailed view of a normal alveolus (air sac, left) and an alveolus affected by emphysema (right)

Pulmonary consolidation, X-ray
Pulmonary consolidation. X-ray showing that the upper lobe of a patients left lung has become consolidated (filled with pus) due to pneumonia

Old and new tuberculosis, X-ray
Coloured X-ray (front view) of the chest in a 50 year old male patient, showing fibrosis in the lungs from old tuberculosis (more fibrous scarring, orange)

Heart and lungs, historical illustration. 19th Century hand coloured lithographic print showing the lungs (left and right) situated either side of the heart (lower centre)

Respiratory anatomy, 19th Century artwork. Historical hand coloured lithographic print showing the trachea (wind pipe, vertical) running down from the larynx (voicebox)

Heart and neck, historical illustration. 19th Century hand coloured lithographic print showing the major blood vessels (red and blue) and nerves (white) that pass through the human neck
