Three‐dimensional sonographic volume measurement of the fetal lung
Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology Research, 2007AbstractAim: The objective of this longitudinal study was to evaluate the growth of the fetal lung in normal pregnancies, using 3‐D ultrasound.Methods: 3‐D sonographic examinations were performed on 14 appropriate‐for‐gestational‐age fetuses. Fetal lung volumes (left, right, and total lung volumes) were measured every 2–3 weeks from 20 weeks of ...

Accuracy of measured and predicted residual lung volume on body density measurement
Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, 1986The effects of measured and predicted residual lung volume on the accuracy of body density and percent fat (%Fat) were investigated. Adult fitness subjects (N = 46) had residual lung volume measured with the oxygen dilution method while those from an athlete sample (N = 134) utilized the nitrogen washout technique.

Measuring end expiratory lung volume after cardiac surgery.
Acta anaesthesiologica Belgica, 2012The aim of this study was to evaluate the interest of end expiratory volume (EELV) measurement after cardiac surgery.After stabilization, four EELV measurements were performed at one hour intervals during three hours using the nitrogen washout technique. EELV was compared to the predicted functional residual capacity (FRC) volume.

Dynamic chest radiography measurements correlate with conventionally measured lung volumes
Clinical respiratory physiology, exercise and functional imaging, 2019Introduction: Dynamic chest radiography (DCR) is a novel technology that allows real time observation of respiratory kinetics and measurement of lung volumes during the respiratory cycle. Aim: To correlate measurements of lung area during deep inspiration on posteroanterior (PA) and lateral DCR images and derived lung volume with Total Lung Capacity ...

Measurement of Forced Expiratory Flows and Lung Volumes
NeoReviews, 2004After completing this article, readers should be able to: 1. Describe the information that measurements of forced expiratory flow can provide in spontaneously breathing and mechanically ventilated infants. 2. Delineate how lung volume can be measured.

Lung volume measurements in childhood.
Paediatric respiratory reviews, 2004Although less commonly used in clinical practice than spirometry, lung volume measurements are helpful in assessing progress and response to therapy in situations where lung volume is likely to be increased, as in asthma or cystic fibrosis, or reduced secondary to pulmonary hypoplasia, pulmonary fibrosis, or musculoskeletal abnormalities.

Lung volumes: measurement, clinical use, and coding.
Chest, 2012Measurement of lung volumes is an integral part of complete pulmonary function testing. Some lung volumes can be measured during spirometry; however, measurement of the residual volume (RV), functional residual capacity (FRC), and total lung capacity (TLC) requires special techniques. FRC is typically measured by one of three methods.

Noninvasive measurement of regional interstitial lung volume in sheep
Journal of Applied Physiology, 1988The noninvasive external radioflux detection method (ERD) measures net transvascular flux of tracer protein into and out of the lung extravascular compartment (EV) and time to zero flux between compartments. With this information we can now estimate regional interstitial volume in the field of the external probe (VIs).

Lung volume measurement during closed circuit anesthesia.
Acta anaesthesiologica Belgica, 1985Lung volume measurement can be of interest to anesthesists as well as respiratory physicians, both as a diagnostic tool and as a way to monitor the effect of respiratory therapy (for instance PEEP ventilation). Several methods exist to measure lung volume. Only two of them can be applied easily during mechanical ventilation.
