Studying Flow-Induced Pulmonary Hypertension and Compensatory Lung Growth: Insights from A Novel Murine Model

In the realm of pulmonary research, the search to understand complex lung conditions has led to the development of various animal models. Among these, a new murine model from Tsijis et al stands out for its potential to investigate flow-induced pulmonary hypertension (PH) and compensatory lung growth (CLG). This blog outlines this innovative model, its significance, and the method of measuring Total Lung Capacity (TLC) using the flexiVent system.
