1 Ultrasonographic assessment of diaphragm thickness.
Ultrasonographic assessment of diaphragm thickness. A: Ultrasonographic view of the normal diaphragm in the zone of apposition, with B-mode in the upper part and M-mode in the lower part. B: Anatomical structures that can be identified in B-mode scanning. C: Anatomical structures that can be identified in M-mode scanning. D: Probe placement to explore the diaphragm in the zone of apposition. The distance identified by plus signs 1 in A and C is end-inspiratory thickness, whereas the distance between plus signs 2 in the same panels is the end-expiratory thickness.
