Representative sidestream dark field microscopy images of subpleural lung tissue. Whereas during slighly increased abdominal pressure at IAH grade 1 alveolar size seems to be comparable, in the pictures of the animals ventilated with FCV, a more even ventilation of the individual alveoli directly adjacent to each other becomes apparent at IAH grade 2 and 3
