Flow of Life According to Galen |
| 13169c18b01.8s Heat plays a central role part in the theory of Galen. The three ‘faculties’ of the body are the nutritive, vital and logical faculties. The nutritive faculty is related to the stomach which “cooks” the food and converts it into chyle. The chyle is transported to the liver by the portal vein. In the liver further heat converts the food into blood and adds natural spirit. Some of the blood is transported via the veins to the heart where more heat is added to create vital spirit. The blood becomes thinner is distributed to the body by the arteries giving warmth and enables growth. The vital spirit is measured through the pulse. The brain adds psychic pneuma, which provides the rational and logical faculty in the form of thought will and choice. These are distributed to the body via the nerves. The logical faculty reigns supreme and is followed in orderof importance by the vital and nutrtive faculties. The transport systems of the body include the nerves which transmit the logical faculty, the arteries which transport the vital spirit, and the veins which transport the blood with nutritive faculty from the liver.

The Circulatory System Study of Dynamic and Efficient Flow |
| The heart and lungs are positioned at the centre of all the organs in the body and they are understandably considered vital organs. Think of yourself as a little red cell within the vast and powerful environment of the circulatory system. Listen and feel the power of the pulse and the rush of all the rivers going back and forth, hither and thither, and around and around – imagine what goes on inside the system all the time – it is probably like walking through a rain forest with huge waterfalls, winding rivers and rivulets – a mixture of gushing power and calm meandering flow- but the colors are reds and blues instead of greens and yellows!

Clinical Imaging in the Fall |
| The clinician uses a tubular system called the stethoscope of course, to examine air flow through the tracheobronchial tree. The key in patient care is to combine the clinical knowledge with the imaging. Neither can stand alone. Courtesy of: Ashley Davidoff M.D 32467b05 Davidoff art |

The Alveolus Centre of the Respiratory System Model of Efficiency and Work Flow |
| The five major layers that keep the air moving include the outer bony cage, the muscular layer represented in maroon, the pleural complex (orange yellow orange) the lung (blue) and surfactant within the alveolus. (pink) Courtesy Ashley Davidoff MD. 42530b05b09b01a08 Davidoff art |
The Alveolus Centre of the Respiratory System Model of Efficiency and Work Flow |
| The alveolus is lined by a complex detergent type solution called surfactant (pink) which reduces the surface tension in the alveolus, making it easier for the alveolus to expand during inspiration and preventing alveolar collapse on expiration.

The Ins and Outs of the Lungs Model of Efficiency and Work Flow |
| The chest is surrounded by a ring of muscle (maroon) made up of a various groups which work in concert. The diaphragm is the workhorse of the respiratory muscles and is shown as a thick maroon band inferiorly. Courtesy Ashley Davidoff MD. 42530b05b09b14 Davidoff art |
The Ins and Outs of the Lungs Model of Efficiency and Work Flow |
| The chest quietly expands and contracts under basal conditions in order to serve the alveoli. At first glance it seems like a simple bellows-like process, but as one delves into the layers of detail, the complexity of the structural design unfolds as a combination of physical and chemical forces.

Protection The Chest Wall
|
| The first of 5 functional layers consists of the bony skeleton consisting of the sternum and the spine which are fixed and the ribs which move up and outward on inspiration and down and inward on expiration. Courtesy Ashley Davidoff MD. 42530b08 Davidoff art |
The Alveolus and the Lungs |
| The two layers of pleura (orange) are held together by a thin layer of pleural fluid (yellow) by cohesive and adhesive forces. The visceral pleura is connected to the lung while the parietal pleura is attached to the chest wall. The pleura and fluid as a unit bind the chest wall to the lungs. The cohesion and adhesion that results keeps the outer chest cage of bone and muscle in intimate contact with the lungs, being pulled and pushed together in the harmonious dance of respiratory movement.
