Assessment of Pulmonary Capillary Blood Volume, Membrane Diffusing Capacity, and Intrapulmonary Arteriovenous Anastomoses During Exercise

Exercise is a stress to the pulmonary vasculature. With incremental exercise, the pulmonary diffusing capacity (DL(CO)) must increase to meet the increased oxygen demand; otherwise, a diffusion limitation may occur. The increase in DL(CO) with exercise is due to increased capillary blood volume (Vc)...
