Airway narrowing assessed by anatomical optical coherence tomography in vitro: Dynamic airway wall morphology and function

Airway narrowing assessed by anatomical optical coherence tomography in vitro: Dynamic airway wall morphology and function

Regulation of airway caliber by lung volume or bronchoconstrictor stimulation is dependent on physiological, structural, and mechanical events within the airway wall, including airway smooth muscle (ASM) contraction, deformation of the mucosa and cartilage, and tensioning of elastic matrices linking...
