Impact of artificial airway resistances on regional ventilation distribution during airway closure

Electrical impedance tomography (EIT), a noninvasive and radiation-free imaging technique can be used in pulmonary function monitoring for determining regional ventilation distribution within the lung. Gold standard in pulmonary function monitoring is spirometry/body plethysmography, a method using...
