Pneumo is a combining form. It is combined with other Words to help give description to them. The Word pneumo comes from the Word pneumawhich is generally translated 'breath, wind, spirit or soul.' Since 'breath' is invisible and necessary for life, it is an apt Word to describe the invisible part of man - his soul or spirit.

Pneumo can be used pertaining to the 'lung', but actually has a wider application; such as in the Word pneumoencephalography(now that's a Word for a spelling-bee), which is 'a radiographic technique for examining the brain by creating contrast through displacing brain fluid with air or oxygen.'
