Diagnosis
| Region | Finding |
|---|---|
| Lung fields | Both lung fields are clear. No focal consolidation, nodule, mass, or interstitial infiltrates. Lung markings are normal. |
| Pleura | No pleural effusion. No pneumothorax. Both costophrenic angles are sharp and clear. |
| Heart | Cardiac silhouette is normal in size and shape. No cardiomegaly. Cardiothoracic ratio within normal limits. |
| Mediastinum | Mediastinal contours are normal. Trachea is central and patent. Aortic knob is unremarkable. |
| Diaphragm | Both hemidiaphragms are smooth, well-defined, and normally positioned. No subdiaphragmatic free air (no pneumoperitoneum). Gastric air bubble is normally positioned under the left hemidiaphragm. |
| Bones | Mild age-appropriate degenerative changes of the thoracolumbar spine (minor osteophytes). No fracture, vertebral collapse, or lytic/sclerotic lesions. Ribs and clavicles intact. |
| Soft tissues | A small metallic density overlying the lower thoracic spine (~T10 level) - likely a surgical clip from a prior procedure or an external clothing artifact (bra hook/clasp). Soft tissue constriction artifact at the waistline consistent with tight clothing (sari string/elastic waistband). |
Note: This is a radiological description based on image analysis. Final clinical diagnosis should always be correlated with the patient's history, symptoms, and examination findings by the treating clinician.
