Brief Summary
Cricoid is considered the narrowest part with the shape of airway defined as elliptical with the subglottis as the narrowest region. This study using imaging modality (2D CT images) is done to determine any differences in airway shape between infants and children, and to evaluate the dimensional transition between the subglottic area and the cricoid ring.
