The visibility of the intraoperative lung markings was graded. The degree of pulmonary emphysema was assessed by the percentage of low attenuation area on computed tomography. We elucidated the associations between the marking grade and other factors such as patient age or sex, pulmonary lobe mapped, marking operator, Brinkman index, and percentage of low attenuation area of the pulmonary lobe.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>In Spearman rank correlation analysis, there was no correlation between the Brinkman index and the percentage of low attenuation area ( n\u2009=\u200926, r\u2009=\u2009\u22120.016, p\u2009=\u20090.937). In stepwise multivariate regression analysis, the marking grade correlated with the marking operator ( p\u2009&lt;\u20090.001) and the Brinkman index ( p\u2009=\u20090.008), but not with patient age
