Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Neonates will be eligible if they have had a CT chest within the first 31 days of life (corrected gestational age) at the Royal Children’s Hospital in Melbourne, Victoria.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Neonates will be excluded if they meet the following criteria:
  • 1\. The CT scan is conducted after 31 days corrected gestational age.
  • 2\. The scout CXR has a cardiothoracic ratio above 0\.6 indicating cardiomegaly and distortion of the thoracic structures.
  • 3\. The scout CXR shows significant lordosis or scoliosis which would distort accurate assessment of rib/diaphragm relationship.
  • 4\. A single ventricle is identified on the CT scan.
  • 5\. Participants suffer from congenital lung pathology including congenital diaphragmatic hernia, congenital pulmonary airway malformation (previously congenital cystic adenomatoid malformations), pulmonary sequestration, congenital lobar emphysema, bronchogenic cysts.
