Abstract
It is well accepted that bubbles, through some mechanism, are the cause of marginal symptoms of decompression sickness (DCS). For this reason a theoretical model of extravascular gas bubble dynamics has been derived to aid in developing and evaluating decompression procedures. The model has been developed and refined over a number of years and has been aimed at both diving and aerospace decompressions.
