Four typical examples of the external and internal volume changes (the TVC and the AVC), spirometric tidal volume and lung density as functions of respiratory stage. The GI gas volume change (GVC) does not correlate with the respiratory stage. A phase shift (0.1–0.4 stage advance) is shown for the spirometric curve.
