11. Specific changes in lung volumes also occur during pregnancy. 12. :See Lung volumes -this suggests it's about half a litre. 13. Lung volume tests may show hyperinflation ( excessive air in lungs caused by air trapping ).14. On chest radiographs, progressive fibrotic changes with loss of lung volume particularly affect the upper lobes. 15. Lung volume is also directly related to body mass in mammals ( slope = 1.02 ).16. The interesting thing about lung volume reduction surgery, 17. Its mechanism of action is the application of mild positive airway pressure and lung volume recruitment. 18. It would seem more logical to look at the wide angle and the small lung volume . 19. People with pleural effusions may show evidence of restriction in lung volumes due to the fluid. 20. Swimming and diving crocodilians appear to rely on lung volume more for buoyancy than oxygen storage.
