title: How to evaluate lung fields on the neonatal chest X-ray film.
abstract: The general principles of evaluating lung fields have been presented. These concepts will be applied in future columns as specific disease entities are discussed. Before the column focuses on the specific cardiopulmonary pathologies, however, there will be one more column addressing general principles. Evaluation of cardiac size will be covered in the next column.
