A multi-scale model of gas transport in the lung to study heterogeneous lung ventilation during the multiple-breath washout test

The multiple-breath washout (MBW) is a lung function test that measures the degree of ventilation inhomogeneity (VI). The test is used to identify small airway impairment in patients with lung diseases like cystic fibrosis. However, the physical and physiological factors that influence the test outc...
