<p>Parametric characterization of nitric oxide (NO) gas exchange using a two-compartment model of the lungs (65, 70) is a non-invasive technique to characterize inflammatory lung diseases. The technique applies the two-compartment (65, 70) model to parametric characterization of NO gas exchange from a tidal breathing pattern. The model (65, 70) is used to estimate up to six flow-independent parameters, and to study alternate breathing patterns.</p> |
