Assessment of cross-sectional area (CS) and hydraulic diameter (DH) along the centerline throughout the upper airway in a patient from the JIA+ group. Each white dot represents a slice level. The middle observation represents the position of the minimum CS and DH (slice level 30). Notice how the upper assessment (slice level 5) and the lower assessment (slice level 46) have comparable DH but great difference in CS due to difference in airway shape
