Inclusion criteria

* Patients must have a diagnosis of advanced emphysema as defined by FEV1/FVC\<70% predicted, FEV1 of \<50% predicted, TLC \> 100% predicted, and RV \> 135% predicted. * Patients must have persistent symptoms despite medical therapy and either not be candidates for Lung Volume Reduction Surgery (LVRS) or have elected not to undergo LVRS. * Patients must be \> 40 years of age, have symptoms despite medical therapy, and have none of the prespecified co-morbid conditions that could influence study outcomes or their ability to tolerate bronchoscopy.
