The portion of lung tissue which is aerated by individual tertiary bronchus is called bronchopulmonary segment.This is supplied by separate pulmonary artery and drained by common intersegmental vein.The knowledge aboutbranching pattern of bronchial tree is important during surgical resection of segments,...

5 Thus, the formation, distribution, and differentiation of the epithelium in branching morphogenesis during fetal lung development are critical to postnatal respiratory maturation and function, and as the future bronchial tree is formed in the pseudoglandular period, branching morphogenesis in this ...
transcriptional pathways, and other instructive molecular factors are commonly employed within and across species, tissues, and stages of development. While much still remain to be elucidated and some of what has been reported corroborated and reconciled with rest of existing data, notable progress has...
Pulmonary fissures separate bronchopulmonary segments and delineate lungs into lobes Anatomical variation of these fissures lie on a continuum from completely fused lobes to accessory fissures in about 17.5% of right and 2% of left lungs. Hilar variations in the bronchial tree and vasculature can also...

The branching systems in our body (vascular and bronchial trees) and those in the natural world (plants, trees, and rivers) are characterized by a fractal nature: self-similar branching patterns and recursive bifurcations. These branching networks have the increasing density of branches toward the ...
Using as study method the injection of plastic followed by corrosion, we described, on an 8 months fetal lung, a particular branching pattern of the right bronchial tree were the superior lobar bronchus arise on the right side of the trachea, at 4.1 cm cranial to tracheal bifurcation. Other...
Included among these structures are structures of branching topology such as the bronchial tree in chest computed tomography images, the blood vessels in retinal images and the breast ductal network in x-ray galactograms and the tubular bone patterns in dental radiography. Analysis of such images ...
Growth of the bronchial tree during the pseudoglandular stage occurs by the continuous formation of new distal branch points. Proliferative expansion of endodermal progenitors at these sites requires signals from the adjacent mesenchyme. In turn, signals from the endoderm and the mesothelium maintain...
