What is Diaphragm Thickness Reference Values about?
This study aimed to establish normal values for diaphragm thickness and thickening in healthy volunteers while seated, using ultrasonography. It included 200 participants and found that women generally had thinner hemidiaphragms than men, with specific lower limits of normality for thickness and thickening fractions identified for both genders. These reference values are intended to assist clinicians in detecting diaphragm atrophy and dysfunction.
