Death of a Lung Model
PRODUCT DETAILS
This educational model cast from real specimens graphically illustrates the effects of smoking on the lungs. The first example shows the way normal lung tissue looks in a nonsmoker’s body. Contours of the normal lung are smooth and regular, and the color is healthy. The second piece depicts the way tissue from an emphysematous lung appears. It has a soft, irregular shape, a spongy texture, and blackened color. Collapsing air sacs within the lung will eventually smother the smoker. The third example is of cancer of the lung. The cancer appears as a large, whitish-gray mass. Use this display to teach the dangers of smoking in a way viewers will never forget. 9" x 12".
