the problem i have with cxrs is the light above the shadow of the shoulder. Since most my patients are large, there needs to be very little to no light above the shoulder or else the costrophenic angles will get cut off. but then if the patient is in between large and average and i dont get enough light above the shadow of the shoulders then i cut off the top or bottom.

ask the patient to drop their shoulders after they rotate it forward. also, on larger patients, don't worry too much about seeing the light bive the shoulders as extra tissue on top is deceiving. center at t7(inferior angle of the scapula) as normal, and use the armpit level as extra confirmation

Oh my.. I missed this one! It may just be body habitus... depending on the diaphragm though (if flat and straight across/not typical curvature, and much lower that usual) that can be a sign of hyperinflation of the lungs.

Hi! I just want to ask if there is side effects if I do chest x-ray twice a week? Like 1st (that was Friday ) I do chest x-ray and then 2nd chest x-ray is also Friday

Please 🙏 reply if there are side effects

Hey heyy 👋🏽 No need to worry. Thankfully, chest x-rays are amongst some of the lowest radiation exposure procedures in x-ray. Two chest x-rays equate to about 3 weeks of natural background radiation you would've received in nature/life over time. Of course once the benefits (diagnosis) outweigh the risks and the xrays are taken only when necessary, you'll be just fine 🙂

Heyy.. no need to worry 🤗 chest x-rays are very minimal in radiation amounts. 3 times in a few months is okay. I'm sure the benefits far outweighed the little risk associated.

Or is it harmful if I do chest x-ray twice a week? Like after 6 days I do chest x-ray again. If it is harmful what are the side effects? Please let me know, I really wanna know 🙏🙏
