Figure 1From: Determination of intravascular volume status in critically ill patients using portable chest X-rays: measurement of the vascular pedicle widthReceiver-operating characteristics curve for vascular pedicle width. The curve shows the ability of the vascular pedicle width to differentiate between fluid overload and euvolemia at different cutoff points. The area under the curve is 0.724. Increased vascular volume is defined as pulmonary artery occlusion pressure ≥ 18 mmHg.Back to article page
