Medical Physics Physics of Respiratory system Prepared By Dr.Shahla H.Ali College of Medicine University of Duhok 1 What is Human Respiration? ◼ The human respiratory system allows one to obtain oxygen, eliminate carbon dioxide. ◼ Breathing consists of two phases, inspiration and expiration ◼ Inspiration- the process of taking in air ◼ Expiration- the process of blowing out air 4 Respiration Processes ◼ Breathing (ventilation): air in to and out of lungs ◼ External respiration: gas exchange between air and blood ◼ Internal respiration: gas exchange between blood and tissues 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 Measurement of Lung Capacity 16
