Abstract
To conduct diagnostic and therapeutic manipulation it is important to know individual spatial topography of the patient’s diaphragm. The study to determine individual characteristics of the spatial topography of the human diaphragm in two vertical planes – sagittal and frontal based on SCT-examination considering gender, age and somatotype has been conducted. The material for the study was the data of 75 patients examined for different diseases of the abdominal and thoracic cavities. Measuring the height of the right and left cupula of the diaphragm and the angles of its attachment has been performed in the frontal plane on the posterior-posterior axillary, middle-middle axillary and anterior-anterior axillary lines. Statistical processing of the measurements revealed has found a little correlation between the age and height of the cupula in male. Other parameters were not correlated with the studied values (gender and type of body structure).
