A Abbati, and W Gaiba, and G Guidarelli, and R Pozzato, and A Rossi, and M Schiavina, and C V Vos

A new method of studying regional lung functions using 133Xe and the computer-assisted scintillation camera is described. The method and the computer processing give details of the distribution of 133Xe during perfusion and ventilation and also measures of lung function. Some cases are described in detail, and the clinical significance of the method was confirmed in 45 cases.
