WHAT DOES PNEUMONITIS MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Pneumonitis

Pneumonitis or pulmonitis is a general term that refers to inflammation of lung tissue. Many factors can cause pneumonitis, including breathing in animal dander, aspiration, and receiving radiation therapy to the chest. Pneumonitis was listed as the one of the top 15 leading causes of death in the United States as of 2010, overtaking homicide, which dropped off the list. This was due to a number of factors, including an increase in the population of people over 75, for whom pneumonitis is a common cause of death. Pneumonia is pneumonitis combined with consolidation and exudation due to infection.
