The differing physiology of nitrogen and tracer gas multiple-breath washout techniques
<p><strong>Background</strong> Multiple-breath washout techniques are increasingly being used to assess lung function. The principal statistic obtained is the lung clearance index (LCI), but values obtained for LCI using the N2-washout technique are higher than those obtained using...
