Pleural Space [HD]

Dr. Ricardo Jose Gonzalez-Rothi, a lung specialist at the Florida State University College of Medicine, discusses the pleural space, pleural fluid dynamics, and pleural effusions with Jodi Chapman, FSU's medical illustrator. This 3D animation illustrates the basic mechanics and fluid dynamics of the pleural space and how those important concepts carry over into disease conditions that cause pleural effusions (excess fluid in the lungs).
Look on our UA-cam channel FSUMedMedia to find this animation in three smaller pieces: Part I: The Pleural Space, Part II: Pleural Fluid Dynamics, Part III: Pleural Effusions.
This animation was created for the medical students at the Florida State University and was presented by Ricardo Gonzalez-Rothi M.D., Professor and Chair at the Florida State University College of Medicine.

I'm very impressed with the quality of the animation on this informational video. Well done!

[@muni-munilabs722]

This is the best animation that I have ever seen. I wish everything we learnt had an animation like this. Our learning would be natural and intuitive.

I can't give this video enough stars. Every question you have is anticipated and animated.

Kudos to your entire team for an excellent video of great clarity. We're just back from a day visit to the hospital here in Montréal to have excess fluid removed from my wife's right-side lung; a liter and a half and after coming home, and sleeping for a few hours, she's already feeling an improvement. Thanks for helping us understand the physiology.

Thank you so much. We create and post medical animations periodically throughout the year. We just posted another video "The Brachial Plexus- Animated Review." We will be creating more in the future as well.
