Is the nipple the preferred landmark for selecting chest electrode positions in infants? Preliminary report

The relation on roentgenograms between the intercostal spaces and routinely selected chest electrode Position 4 on the one hand and the mammary nipple on the other was determined in 15 infants. The nipple was more frequently located over the fifth intercostal space than the electrode position selected by palpation. This difference is ascribed to poor delineation of the angle of Louis in this age group.
