Correlation of radiographic thoracic area and oxygenation impairment in bronchopulmonary dysplasia

Highlights • Hyperinflation can be radiographically assessed by the radiographic thoracic area. • In premature infants with developing bronchopulmonary dysplasia the radiographic thoracic area is significantly related to the ventilation/perfusion inequality. • This probably reflects the evolving arc...

Zusammenfassung:	Highlights • Hyperinflation can be radiographically assessed by the radiographic thoracic area. • In premature infants with developing bronchopulmonary dysplasia the radiographic thoracic area is significantly related to the ventilation/perfusion inequality. • This probably reflects the evolving architectural distortion in bronchopulmonary dysplasia.
