These teachings are created to support students’ learning but should not replace your local Medical School teaching material.Learning Outcomes Review Review the basic principles of interpreting a plain film radiograph of the chest Describe and be able to recognise the key features Recognize of a plain film radiograph of the chest Recognise the following on chest X-ray (CXR): pleural effusion, pneumothorax, consolidation, Apply cavitation, space occupying lesions and cardiomegalyBasic principles Patient Details: Technical Factors: Name Age and DOB Quality of X ray – RIPE Date taken Previous X-rays Method: ABCDE Normal plain chest radiograph (1) RIPE • Rotation (equal space between medial aspects of clavicles to spinous processes), • Inspiration (>7 anterior and 9 posterior ribs) • Projection • Exposure (visible vertebral bodies behind the heart) • Recommended resource for visual explanation: https://www.radiologymasterclass.co.uk ABCDE AIRWAYS BREATHING CARDIAC DIAPHRAGM EXTRA • Trachea • Carina AIRWAYS • Left and right main bronchus Conditions that shift trachea Conditions that shift trachea towards the disease away from the disease Atelectasis (lung Pneumothorax collapse) Pleural fibrosis Masses/ tumors Pneumonectomy Pleural effusion Normal plain chest radiograph (2) Look for trachea deviation!BREATHING Compare the lung parenchyma left to right and between zones see whether there is a difference. Look for foreign body, opacification,subcutaneous air,etc Lung fields can be divided into zones: upper, middle, and lower zones Normal plain chest radiograp(2)2)CARDIAC • Aortic knuckle • Aortopulmonary Window • AorticArch • Heart borders • Cardiomegaly • Pericardial effusion • Left ventricular hypertrophy In a PAchest radiograph, the heart should not be more than 50% the total width of the diaphragm. If that’s the case consider: Normal plain chest radiograph (2) DIAPHRAGM • Diaphragm • Gastric air bubble • Costophrenic angles Normal plain chest radiograph (2) EXTRA • Clavicle • Medial border of scapula • Ribs • Vertebras Look for ribs and clavicular fractures! Normal plain chest radiograph (2)Case 1 A 20-year-old athletic man came to the emergency room with complaints of difficulty breathing and chest pain on the left side.
