Fig 1 The reference curves of the (A) thoracic inlet, (B) aortic arch, and (C) supracarinal levels tracheal width (cm) by patient's height (cm). The line in the center represents the mean value. The bilateral inner parallel lines are the 95% confidence limits for the regression line, and the bilateral outer lines are the 95% confidence limits for the data points. ■ = boy; • = girl; □ = boy; ○= girl.
