From the level of the thoracic inlet to the main pulmonary artery window, and from below the tracheal bifurcation to the level of the hepatic vein, each layer includes the positioning plane, axial CT images, corresponding schematic diagrams, anatomical structure names, simplified diagrams, lymph nodes, and pulmonary segment names.
