From: Limits of normality of quantitative thoracic CT analysis
Equation | Females | Males |
|---|---|---|
Cordero and colleagues [7] | TLC = 0.072 × h - 0.009 * A - 6.125 | TLC = 0.106 × h - 1.396 |
Roberts and colleagues [10] | TLC = 7.107 × H - 6.435 | TLC = 7.956 × H - 6.948 |
Roca and colleagues [11] | TLC = 92.687 × h + 8.301 * A - 9,129 | TLC = 92.687 × h + 8.301 × A - 9,129 |
TLC = 6.60 × H - 5.79; FRC (sitting) = 2.24 × h + 0.01 × A - 1 | TLC = 7.99 × H - 7.08; FRC (sitting) = 2.32 × h + 0.01 × A - 1.09 | |
Ibanez and Raurich [8] | FRC (supine) = 1.39 × h - 0.424 | FRC (supine) = 5.48 × h - 7.05 |
