Growth of the Lung Parenchyma Early in Life by Balinotti, Juan E, Tiller, Christina J, Llapur, Conrado J, Jones, Marcus H, Kimmel, Risa N, Coates, Cathy E, Katz, Barry P, Nguyen, James T, Tepper, Robert S

“…Early in life, lung growth can occur by alveolarization, an increase in the number of alveoli, as well as expansion. We hypothesized that if lung growth early…”
