Mea'iurements of abnormalities in the interrelationship of pulmonary ventilation and perfusion have become common in oxygen therapy. The techniques by which these measurements are now made and their value in guiding oxygen therapy are discussed. Each phase of oxygen transport to the tissues can be infiuenced by properly regulated oxygen therapy. Oxygen
