Brief summary
This study will be conducted to collect anatomical data in an ambulatory healthy population to aid in the development of a novel non-invasive technology to assess changes in lung hydration status. It will also help in developing reference ranges of lung hydration status in healthy subjects and their associated changes with time.
Interventions
