Abstract
Normal subjects took the sitting, supine, prone, right lateral and left lateral positions during the measurement procedure. One minute epochs of EIT data were collected at the levels of the 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th intercostal spaces in each position during normal tidal breathing. Lung density was then determined from the EIT data using the method proposed by Brown5. Lung density at the electrode level of the 6th intercostal space was different from that at almost any other levels in both male and female subjects, and lung density at the electrode levels of the 4th and 5th intercostal spaces in male subjects did not depend upon position.
