A schematic of contraction atelectasis affecting the right lung, with a dashed contour indicating the normal volume and a shrunken parenchyma surrounding the bronchial tree. Within the respiratory system hierarchy, alveoli and bronchi reside inside the lung organ of the thoracic cavity. In anatomy and pulmonary pathology, this condition decreases gas exchange and worsens V/Q (ventilation–perfusion) matching. The illustration depicts the trachea, main bronchi, and pulmonary vasculature of Homo sapiens (human). The image serves education in physiology and clinical medicine by demonstrating loss of aeration due to parenchymal contraction.
