Fig. 2 —Seventeen frames show normal imaging findings for healthy
63-year-old man obtained using normal vibration response imaging device
(VRIxp, Deep Breeze). Imaging progresses and regresses vertically and in
synchronized manner from top to bottom in both inspiration (Ins) and
expiration (Exp). Projections of right and left sides of image are same as
standard posteroanterior chest radiograph—that is, left lung is shown on
right side of image. Right and left sides of images develop simultaneously
from early frames (frame 1, 2, or 3) to maximum energy frame. Shape of
maximum-energy-frame image is smooth (e.g., frame 5) and rounded and has
uninterrupted contour. Area and gray-scale intensity of right and left sides
of maximum-energy-frame image are similar. Normal maximum-energy-frame image
does not have missing areas.
