Measurements of the cross-sectional area of the abdominal cavity at three levels. 1 Axial MR image at the upper liver level showing measurements of cross-sectional area. 2 Axial MR image at the lower lung level showing measurements of cross-sectional area. 3 Axial MR image at the umbilical level showing measurements of cross-sectional area and thickness of the abdominal muscles. 4 Sagittal MR image at the left kidney level showing abdominal cavity, which is marked in yellow. (1) indicates the upper liver level, (2) indicates the lower lung level, and (3) indicates the umbilical level.
