METHOD FOR EVALUATING REGIONAL VENTILATION AND PULMONARY BLOOD CIRCULATION

摘要

FIELD: medicine. SUBSTANCE: method involves placing a patient into electromagnetic field of 100-500 mW power and 5-30 MHz frequency. Field intensity in lung projection is measured all the time during reserved inhalation. Three zones are identified on each side: one from clavicle to the second rib, one between the second and the sixth rib and one between the sixth rib and costal arch. Measurements are carried out at least in 10 points in each zone. An A index is calculated for each zone from the data obtained. The index magnitudes are compared in symmetrical regions of the right and left lung. The difference being up to 15%, normal state of regional ventilation pulmonary and blood circulation is considered to be the case. The difference being higher than 15%, drop in regional ventilation and pulmonary blood circulation proportional to the difference magnitude is considered to be detected. EFFECT: high accuracy of estimation.
