Description
A human alveoli model is a representation or simulation of the structure and function of the alveoli in the human lungs. It may be a physical model, such as a three-dimensional printed replica, or a computer-generated model, such as a virtual simulation.
These models can be used to study the mechanics of gas exchange in the lungs, the effects of diseases or pollutants on lung function, and the efficacy of treatments for lung conditions.
Some alveoli models incorporate different physiological parameters, such as blood flow, air flow, and oxygen diffusion rates, to simulate the complex interplay between the alveoli and the surrounding tissues.
