| In this paper, we use Monte Carlo simulations of restricted diffusion in a realistic model acinus to compute the signal attenuation in a diffusion-weighted NMR experiment. |
| Panlobular emphysema, also referred to as panacinar emphysema, affects the acinus of the entire secondary lobule. |
| The terminal respiratory unit of the lung from the respiratory bronchiole to the alveolus is called the acinus. |
| The acinus or primary pulmonary lobule consists of one terminal bronchiole, two to five generations of respiratory bronchioles, alveolar ducts, alveolar sacs, and alveoli. |
| Analysis of livers of these vertebrates will likely lead to a better appreciation of the origin of the mammalian portal lobule, the classic lobule and the acinus. |
| The design of the peripheral airways in the acinus of the human lung is described quantitatively on the basis of measurements obtained on casts of the acinar airways. |
