Lung function studies using 13Nitrogen have been used to determine regional and total lung function in 16 children suspected of having localized lung disease amenable to surgery. This method is simple, requires no active co-operation on the part of the child and gives a radiation dosage of about one-third of that for a bronchogram. The studies provided information about the severity and localization of the disease, and in addition, information about the remaining lung areas.
利用13氮进行的肺功能研究已被用于测定16名疑似患有适合手术的局限性肺部疾病儿童的局部和全肺功能。该方法简单，无需儿童主动配合，且辐射剂量约为支气管造影的三分之一。这些研究提供了有关疾病严重程度和定位的信息，此外，还提供了有关其余肺区的信息。
