Nonuniformity of Diffusing Capacity From Small Alveolar Gas Samples Is Increased in Smokers
BACKGROUND: Although centrilobular emphysema, and small airway, interstitial and alveoli inflammation can be detected pathologically in the lungs of smokers with relatively well preserved lung function, these changes are difficult to assess using available physiological tests. Because submaximal sin...
