A chest x-ray consists of the visualization and imaging of structures and organs encased in the chest like lungs, heart, airways, mediastinum, diaphragm, chest wall, and adjacent structures. This technique allows the diagnosis of traumas, swelling, displacements, etc. Chest x-ray reporting refers to the remote interpretation and analysis of chest x-ray scans by specialty radiologists.
Lungs:
Lungs are involved in the gaseous exchange in the body. Complications like lung collapse (atelectasis), overexpansion (hyperinflation), air trapping, fluid accumulation, and masses or nodules can cause structural as well as metabolic problems. A chest x-ray is useful in detecting these complications.
Heart:
The human heart is one of the most crucial organs of the body, and any issues in the heart cause local as well as systemic disorders. Common complications observed in the heart consist of enlargement (cardiomegaly), chamber-specific enlargement, abnormal contour (structural deformation), and calcifications. These complications can be effectively observed using a chest x-ray.
Mediastinum:
The mediastinum is the space between the lungs which encases all the organs in the chest, except for the lungs. Abnormalities in this space can directly affect organs protected by it. Using a chest x-ray, dysfunctions like mediastinal deviation, lymph node enlargement, vascular anomalies, compression of the trachea or esophagus, and loss of normal contours.

If a patient reports to the healthcare institution with a chest-related complaint, a physician attends to the patient and records their clinical data.
A radiological technician performs the chest x-ray at the hospital. The protocols for the radiological examination are standardized.
The images obtained from the chest x-ray are quality checked before further processing.
The images along with the patient’s clinical data are sent to Statim Healthcare.
At Statim, a suitable radiologist is assigned to the case based on the clinical requirements.
The radiologist thoroughly analyzes the images for any abnormalities or dysfunctions.
These findings must be correlated with the patient’s clinical presentation for accurate diagnosis.
The radiologist then prepares a report consisting of the image observations and conclusions.
The report is signed electronically and sent to the healthcare facility using a PACS/RIS or secure email delivery system.
At Statim Healthcare, medical care providers can avail interpretation and diagnostic services for chest x-ray imaging. These services facilitate quality service and timely treatment for the patients.
