Abstract[Summary] Physical parameters influencing deposition patterns of inhaled aerosol in the lungs are the size distribution of inhaled aerosol and the carrier gas which transports aerosol into the lungs. We measured median diameter(dm)of ultrasonically generated aerosol in terms of radioactivity(weight)and its geometric standard deviation(σg)by using a cascade impactor under the following three different clinically simulated conditions ; 1)without a reservoir in place between the aerosol generator and a mouth piece, and with air as a carrier gas, 2)with a reservoir, and with air as a carrier gas and 3)with a reservoir, and with a mixture of 80% helium(He)and 20% oxygen(O2)as a carrier gas. Median diameters and geometric standard deviations were 4.18micron and 1.76, 3.73micron and 1.73 and 2.76micron and 1.82, respectively. Inhaled aerosol generated without a reservoir and with air as a carrier gas tended to deposit on the major airways, revealing the so-called "central pattern" -like deposition patterns, and was considered to be useful for the study of mucociliary clearance mechanism in the lungs, whereas that generated with a reservoir in place, and with a mixture of 80% He and 20% O2 as a carrier gas deposited most evenly in the lung periphery, and it was suited to the study of ventilation in the lungs. Aerosol generated with a reservoir in place and with air as a carrier gas, however, showed more or less an in-between deposition pattern and was suited to use in the routine clinical aerosol inhalation lung imaging.
