Figure 1 Radiographic image of the area displaced by diaphragm motion during inspiration and expiration for the same chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patient.
Note: The thick horizontal lines of posteroanterior radiographs represent the costal insertion of diaphragm to the same spinal process of vertebral column between full inspiration and full expiration.
