what is d difference b/w bronchopneumonia and lobar pneumonia……..?
and pls don’t tell me that one involve focal consolidation and other the whole lobe.what i want to know is d basis of this difference.i read that the bronchopneumonia consist of three zones from inner to outer-congestion,collapse,emphysema.what i think is that it is the difference in the amount of supporting tissue that determine the focal consolidation in case of bronchopneumonia(bronchioles have much more connective tissue than alveoli).
