Light micrograph through a section of human lung tissue showing focal pulmonary tuberculosis. The bacterium mycobacterium tuberculosis is an infection that destroys body tissue. Pulmonary TB occurs when M. tuberculosis primarily attacks the lungs, but can spread from there to other organs. A focal infection is an infection of some part of the body localised by the defensive reactions of the tissues. | |
