(15) To establish the extent to which a parallax-effect of differing angles of X-ray beam relative to the patient can influence the radiologic assessment of carinal level, we measured the tracheal-vertebral distance at the carina in 29 lateral radiographs of neonates, infants and children, prepared diagrams of the loci of carinal beam intercept of the vertebral column for different angles of beam to body, from tracings of lateral radiographs of two 2-week-old infants, one with trachea of normal length and one with short trachea; of a nine-year-old child with short trachea, and of a ten-year-old with normal trachea, and made radiographs of a postmortem tracheobronchogram of a two-day-old infant at different beam angles.
(16) This prediction was confirmed by the experimental determination of chromatic parallax for two commercially available achromatizing lenses.
(17) The hypothesis was tested that the coupling of parallax shifts between objects depicted on a monitor screen around a fixation point with the head movements of an observer viewing this screen monocularly around a point coinciding with the fixation point is sufficient to create a convincing depth impression and to enable the observer to make reliable estimations of depth.
(18) Traditionally, parallax disparities refer to points that are well defined within the objects, such as edges or boundaries.
