Xray

what is your medical diagnosis ?

 

Cardiomegaly with with COPD (Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease), May be CHF too as a DDX

 

Egyptian doctor is "playing games with your heart". (-: This is a pediatric X ray....just look at how the ribs are oriented ( almost horizontal as opposed to oblique in adults ) and it has to do something with the heart

Also In COPD xray...the diaphragm is flattened and the air trapping will result in hyperluceny. In this X ray any hyperlucency is courtesy...overexposure ( all the thoracic veretebrae are clearly visible )

Hint: The heart is boot shaped

 

I see something different docs like foreign object inhalation :w

 

i guess u r right...it looks like this child likes money ( it seems to be in the right bronchus ). I initially thought it was a chest lead P:

A lateral CXR is not required in this case..as it is definitely to the right and thus cannot be in the esophagus.

And I guess, if u look long enough at any infant Xray...it will look boot shaped.

I hope the child doesn't swallow this next

Egyptian doctor is surely playing with our hearts and minds :hhh:
