Fig. 4

Distribution of tidal ventilation. Please refer to Fig. 1 for nomenclature. Tidal changes in regional gas volume were significantly different in the supine and lateral positions with dependent and non-dependent PLEF. Prone position (asterisk), however, showed a more homogeneous gas volume distribution among quadrants compared to other horizontal positions
