Abstract
Lung density patterns in a group of randomly selected, normal individuals were determined by computed tomography using 2 methods: 1 measuring the density of the peripheral lung (parenchyma), and the other determining the density of the whole lung field. The effects of body position and respiratory phase, as well as patient age were assessed. The potential use for this information in clinical settings and in physiological investigation is suggested.
