摘要
One hundred thirty-one lateral soft-tissue radiographs of the neck, taken over a 6-month period, were reviewed. Eighty-six radiographs were normal. The mean prevertebral soft-tissue thickness in the posterior-anterior dimension for each normal radiograph was measured. The mean thickness in the retropharyngeal region ranged from 6.2 mm in the infant to 3.7 mm in the adult, while the mean thickness in the retrotracheal region ranged from 9.2 mm in the preschool group to 12.1 mm in the adult. © 1991.
