Deposition of inspired aerosol particles within the respiratory tract of patients with obstructive lung disease

Total deposition of monodisperse aerosol particles in the size range between 1 μm and 3 μm was measured in patients with obstructive lung disease and in normal people using equal breathing conditions for both groups. It turns out that for breathing conditions at rest, deposition for patients is high...
