From morphological heterogeneity at alveolar level to the overall mechanical lung behavior: an in vivo microscopic imaging study

In six male anesthetized, tracheotomized, and mechanically ventilated rabbits, we imaged subpleural alveoli under microscopic view (60×) through a “pleural window” obtained by stripping the endothoracic fascia and leaving the parietal pleura intact. Three different imaging scale levels were identifi...
