Variable Perfusion of the Lung in Bronchogenic Carcinoma as Measured by 133 xenon

Scott R. Inkley M.D., F.C.C.P1 and William J. MacIntyre Ph.D.1

1 Department of Medicine, University Hospitals of Cleveland and Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, Ohio

A case of bronchogenic carcinoma is reported in which the left lung was essentially nonperfused at resting levels of lung volume and became relatively well perfused at maximum inspiration. Air-containing alveoli in the involved lung were not in communication with major airways based on distribution of inhaled 133xenon and clearance of perfused 133xenon.
