  1. Pulmonary blood flow expressed as maximum standardized uptake values in the injury group (n = 5) and control group (n = 6) for each ROI. Values represent the median [interquartile range]. P values were calculated to compare each ROI of the left and right lung within the control group and between the injured and contralateral lungs within the acid aspiration group.
