Meanings of entire thorax in английском

Another serious difficulty is this: With every inhalation, the entire thorax (or bony structure of the chest) considerably expands.

Keep the elbows back so that the entire thorax is lifted forward and up; at the same time take a deep inhalation.

Xe-DECT of the patients' entire thorax was taken from apex to base after a patient's single deep inspiration of 35% stable nonradioactive xenon.

It seems reasonable to scan the entire thorax on Ca score imaging for smokers over 50 in order to detect pulmonary nodules having malignancy potential.
