Abstract SESSION TITLE: Physiology/PFTs/Rehabilitation Posters SESSION TYPE: Poster Presentations PRESENTED ON: Saturday, March 22, 2014 at 01:15 PM - 02:15 PM PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to establish a reliable method for the assessment of the diaphragmatic motion via the M-mode ultrasound. METHODS: One expert operator evaluated 51 healthy subjects in two separate occasions: before and after a diaphragmatic breathing technique implementation. The right diaphragmatic motion was measured by M-mode ultrasound imaging in three different transducer positions: longitudinal; transverse with image line in the VII hepatic segment and transverse with image line in the VIII hepatic segment. Two-way ANOVA statistics (p
