A novel methodology for measuring global diaphragm thickness by ultrasonography in patients with critical illness: an exploratory pilot study

Abstract Background A global diaphragm thickness measurement technique was developed for the zone of apposition (ZOA) using an image edge identification approach. The method was assessed in terms of its repeatability and reliability when applied in patients with critical illness. Methods Diaphragm t...
