Introduction
This page contains information and images associated with respiratory system histology.
This can be initially divided into the 2 regions of the upper and lower respiratory tract.
- For the upper respiratory tract observe the epithelial specialisations, sensory regions and associated cartilages.
- For the lower respiratory tract observe the basic structure of the lung, alveoli and ducts, and associated cardiovascular elements.

Nasal respiratory epithelium (inferior concha) | Nasal respiratory epithelium (detail) |
Olfactory
Nasal cavity olfactory epithelium cells
- Olfactory cells
- Sustentacular cells - located mainly in the superficial cell layer of the epithelium (difficult to distinguish from olfactory cells).
- Basal cells - identified by their location.
