8 doctors agreed: Possibly: It depends some on your age and past history. Diverticulitis, an infection of the colon, can sometimes show a lot of thickening on ct scan. That can be hard to tell if the infection caused the swelling, or if a tumor is causing the thickening. It is common to recommend a colonoscopy several weeks after the diverticulitis had healed, if you have not already had one.
Maximal Oxygen Uptake. VO2 Max is defined as the highest rate of oxygen consumption attainable during maximal or exhaustive exercise. The terms VO2max, aerobic power, aerobic capacity, and maximal oxygen uptake are all terms used interchangeably. VO2max is widely accepted as the standard gauge of cardiorespiratory fitness.
A motorized treadmill is usually used to increase the intensity of exercise until fatigue occurs. The amount of oxygen consumed just before exhaustion is the maximal oxygen uptake or VO2max. Exercise intensity can be expressed as a percentage of VO2max. Low intensity such as fast walking would be 30 to 50% of VO2max. Jogging can demand 50 to 80 % of VO2max depending on the intensity, and sprints can require from 85% to 150% of VO2max (with the added 50% coming from short term anaerobic energy production).
