Pulmonary fibrosis is a deadly disease in which the lungs become thickened and scarred, gradually losing their ability to deliver oxygen to the body. Now, scientists at UC San Francisco have ...

3D-printed lungs made with living cells could help to improve lung disease prevention and treatment—and potentially one day offer a lab-grown option for use in organ transplants. University of ...

A magnetic microrobot navigates lung airways, drills microlesions, gathers biomarkers, and rapidly classifies cancer tissue with Raman sensing and machine learning in a single integrated workflow.

Fibrosis of the lungs is often a silent disease until it's too late. By the time patients are diagnosed, the scarring of their lung tissue is already advanced, and current treatments offer little more ...

Scientists have, for the first time, transplanted a genetically engineered pig lung into a human. The lung tissue remained alive for nine days after the transplant despite early signs of inflammation, ...

Robotic and video-assisted thoracic surgery have revolutionized lung cancer treatment, minimizing trauma and shortening recovery times. Minimally invasive techniques enable complex procedures, ...

Nowhere is safe from microplastics. A new study has found that humans inhale far more microplastics than previously thought, more than 70,000 particles each day in an indoor environment — and many of ...

UCLA researchers have created the first lung organoids with organotypic blood vessel networks, marking a major advancement in modeling how lungs naturally develop in the human body. The vascularized ...
