Abstract

This report demonstrates the normal cross-sectional appearance of the bronchial tree as seen on computed tomography. Key sections are emphasized in order to provide general orientation. Where significant, anatomic variations are identified. Detailed knowledge of the normal appearance of the bronchi is a prerequisite to identifying abnormalities that affect both the bronchi and the hilum.
