Popis:	In this study, we attempted a comparative analysis of the dose and imaging difference between the deep inhalation (DI) and deep exhalation (DE) chest radiography of the same region. Healthy volunteers (n $$=$$= 30; 27 men and 3 women) free of chest disease in their 20s, 30s, and 40s were selected as the subjects of this study. We employed an X-ray generator (Philips) with a built-in ion chamber and an Active Breathing Coordinator (ABC) system Version 1.02 (Elekta) with embedded software (Aktina Medical Co., USA) that produces graphs following breathing cycles. Significant differences (p $$
