Comparison between computerized tomography-guided bronchial width measurement versus conventional method for selection of adequate double lumen tube size

Background: Selection of adequate size double lumen tube (DLT) is complicated by marked inter-individual variability in morphology and dimensions of tracheobronchial tree. Computerized tomography (CT)-guided left bronchus width measurement has been used to predict adequate size DLT in European and S...
