Preferred Label : pneumoconiosis;
MeSH definition : A diffuse parenchymal lung disease caused by inhalation of dust and by tissue reaction
to their presence. These inorganic, organic, particulate, or vaporized matters usually
are inhaled by workers in their occupational environment, leading to the various forms
(ASBESTOSIS; BYSSINOSIS; and others). Similar air pollution can also have deleterious
effects on the general population.;
