Chronic Bronchitis

More than 10 million Americans suffer from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. COPD is diagnosed when two conditions are present: emphysema and chronic bronchitis.

Though there is no known cure for this progressive lung disease, patients can find hope in the advancements that regenerative medicine is now bringing to damaged lung tissue.

The results of these studies look promising. Soon we hope to see COPD sufferers breathe easier.
