Fractional content of air in lungs measured by micro-CT in control and bleomycin-exposed mice at 1 and 3 weeks

Fraction of Air Comprising Observed Lung Volume
End Inspiration End Exhalation
Control (1 wk) 66.6±3.2% 35.7±6.1%
Bleomycin (1 wk) 52.2±8.8%* 23.3±7.9%
Control (3 wk) 63.0±7.1% 33.9±7.9%
Bleomycin (3 wk) 66.5±2.4% 27.5±4.6%

Values are means ± SD; n = 5 mice for each group. Micro-CT, micro-computed tomography.
