Correct diagnosis please

[remy lover]

Can anybody please tell me which is correct:

EMPHYSEMA.......or

EMPHYSEMIA.

Both versions are listed on Google in reference to lung disease and even folk who are suffering from it seem confused.

Thanks everso

The first is correct, no I.

[d0gsb0dy]

That's also the spelling I use.

google gives 2,444,000 emphysemas and 1,580 emphysemias, which is a pretty good guide to the right spelling.
