Validation of a two-compartment model of ventilation/perfusion distribution

Ventilation ( V ˙ A ) to perfusion ( Q ˙ ) heterogeneity ( V ˙ A / Q ˙ ) analyses by a two-compartment lung model (2C), utilizing routine gas exchange measurements and a computer solution to account for O 2 and CO 2 measurements, were compared with multiple inert gas elimination technique (MIGET) an...
