“…Left bronchial width can be measured from a chest radiograph, but as demonstrated in our study and others, the left bronchus can be clearly seen in only 50% to 75% of chest radiographs [6][7][8]. Left bronchial width can also be measured from a chest computed tomography scan [9].…”

“…However, Chow et al found that the measurement of tracheal diameter from a chest radiograph is less reliable in patients who are of small stature [13]. They and others suggested CT as a possible alternative to measuring directly the diameter of the left main-stem bronchus [14,16,17]. This constitutes an exact and accurate "gold standard" method, but it is not always practical.…”
