Evaluation of diaphragmatic function in mechanically ventilated children: An ultrasound study. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2017
The recovery of diaphragmatic function is vital for successful extubation from mechanical ventilation. Recent studies have detected diaphragm atrophy in ventilated adults by using ultrasound, but no similar report has been conducted in children.

Ultrasound imaging measurements to determine reduced diaphragm thickness and relevance to breathing pattern disorders diagnosis in females

WFUMB Ultrasound Open, 2023
Background: Breathing pattern disorders (BPD) are commonly managed by physiotherapists. As no gold-standard assessment diagnostic tools are currently available, diagnosis is challenging. Ultrasound imaging has become popular in physiotherapy.

Diagnostic Ultrasound Imaging of Mouse Diaphragm Function [PDF]

Journal of Visualized Experiments, 2014
Function analysis of rodent respiratory skeletal muscles, particularly the diaphragm, is commonly performed by isolating muscle strips using invasive surgical procedures. Although this is an effective method of assessing in vitro diaphragm activity, it involves non-survival surgery.
