Abstract
At present the word emphysema is used to indicate various morbid states of the lung differing widely in their pathology, symptomatology, and prognosis. This results in confusion and misunderstanding between investigators working in different centres and in different branches of medicine and thus retards advance in knowledge of a group of common and often serious disabling diseases.
