Riassunto

Incorporates state-of-the-art interpretations of complex pulmonary physiology revealed by high-resolution or -magnification studies into current concepts of lung mechanics, gas exchange, and pulmonary vascular and regional ventilation properties. Features a new alternate hypothesis to describe blood flow distribution in the lung.
