These needles move up and down easily and when applied to an undulating surface will conform to that surface, preserving the exact shape of the depressions and elevations. (Fig. L49.) Spirometry. The object of spirometry is to ascertain the respiratoryor vital capacity of the lung, the quantity of air taken in with each in-spiration and discharged with each expiration. The estimation is madeby means of the spirometer. Eutchinsons spirometer is constructed onthe gasometer principle; Barnes is much simpler. The data ascertained Pig. 150.
