Fractal analysis of concurrently prepared latex rubber casts of the bronchial and vascular systems of the human lung

Fractal geometry (FG) is a branch of mathematics that instructively characterizes structural complexity. Branched structures are ubiquitous in both the physical and the biological realms. Fractility has therefore been termed nature's design. The fractal properties of the bronchial (airway) syst...
