40" AP/PA Filter (57-405)

The 40" AP/PA Filter is used to even out densities in the chest cavity as it increases in size. The thin end
of the filter is in the caudad direction (see Figure 5-27). How low the filter is positioned depends on the
shape of the patient.


Filter is suggested for above-diaphragm application
only.
