Any discrepancy between pulmonary blood flow and ventilation is called V/Q mismatch. Ventilation is the amount of air that reaches the lungs and Perfusion is the amount of blood flow to the lung. In normal lung physiology the V/Q ratio is a measurement used to determine the efficacy and adequacy of ventilation and perfusion of the lung.
