Abstract: | Data obtained in a study of the deposition of monodisperse particles in replicate casts of the human upper bronchial tree were used to develop an empirical model for prediction of bronchial deposition under both constant and cyclic inspiratory flow conditions. The model incorporates specific morphometric factors which affect deposition. |
