Summary

Automatic Translation

Intratracheal (IT) administration of experimental agents in mice often results in asymmetric delivery to the distal lungs.  In this report, we describe a direct intrabronchial (IB) approach to cannulate each lung in living mice non-operatively.  This approach can be used to selectively administer agents to one lung or may be adapted to improve the symmetric agent delivery to both lungs.
