Research during the past two decades has led to a better understanding of key physiologic mechanisms of injury yet uncertainty over the topographical distribution of these mechanisms continues to fuel controversies over best ventilation practice in injured lungs. In this issue Pavone and colleagues have explored the temporal and spatial evolution of VALI in an elegant use of intravital microscopy. Their findings reinforce the notion that regions which receive most of the inspired gas in Pavone s case the non-dependent lung of a rat supported in the lateral decubitus posture are particularly susceptible to injury. However the inability to measure tissue strain remote from the pleura keeps important questions about small scale intra-acinar stress and strain distributions unanswered. Mechanical Ventilation Associated Lung Injury VALI is a prevalent complication of supportive care and greatly impacts outcomes of critically ill patients 1 2 . Research during the past two decades has identified deforming stress as a major determinant of biotrauma 3 and has drawn attention to four interrelated lung injury mechanisms regional overexpansion caused by the application of a local stress or pressure that forces cells and tissues to assume shapes and dimensions they normally would not during unassisted breathing so-called low .
