Positional therapy and regional pulmonary ventilation: High-resolution alignment of prone and supine computed tomography images in a large animal model
Background Prone ventilation redistributes lung inflation along the gravitational axis;
however, localized, nongravitational effects of body position are less well characterized. The …
