The left lung has only a single lobe.(Reprinted from Popesko P, Rajtova V, Horak J. A colour atlas of anatomy of small laboratory animals, vol. 2: rabbit, guinea pig. Elsevier; 1992; with permission from Elsevier.) Rodents are obligate nasal breathers; therefore, disease processes ...
Some mathematical assumptions about acinar anatomy distal to terminal bronchioles were made to extend the models to include pulmonary regions. Emphasis was placed on the Typical Path Lung Model which used one typical pathway to represent either a whole lung or a lobe of the lung. The models are...
After setting 6 virtual points placed on the surface of each lung lobe model, simulated pressure measurement and corresponding pathological autopsies were then conducted to validate the accuracy of the modeling. For the both sides of the lung, when the distance were 40 cm, 50 cm and 60...
