Measuring lung function in mice: the phenotyping uncertainty principle.

Abstract excerpt

Measuring lung function in mice is essential for establishing the relevance of murine models to human lung disease. However, making such measurements presents particular technical challenges due to the small size of the animal, particularly with regard to the measurement of respiratory flows. In this review, we examine the various methods currently available for assessment of lung function in mice and contrast...
