Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths in both women and men in
the United States and throughout the world. Lung cancer has surpassed
breast cancer as the leading cause of cancer deaths in women. In the United
States in 2007, 160,390 people were projected to die from lung cancer,
which is more than the number of deaths from colorectal, breast, and
prostate cancer combined. Only about 2% of those diagnosed with lung cancer
that has spread to other areas of the body are alive five years after the
diagnosis, although the survival rates for lung cancers diagnosed at a very
early stage are higher, with approximately 49% surviving for five years or
longer.

Emphysema is a long-term, progressive disease of the lung that primarily
causes shortness of breath. In people with emphysema, the lung tissues
necessary to support the physical shape and function of the lung are
destroyed. It is included in a group of diseases called chronic obstructive
pulmonary disease or COPD (pulmonary refers to the lungs). Emphysema is
called an obstructive lung disease because the destruction of lung tissue
around smaller airways, called bronchioles, makes these airways unable to
hold their shape properly when you exhale.
