A 58-year-old hypertensive male presents with acute onset severe epigastric pain for 2 days, associated with vomiting, abdominal distension, obstipation, and decreased urine output. On examination, he is tachycardic with generalized abdominal tenderness and guarding. Bowel sounds are sluggish.

Calcaneum – Axial (Basic) Projection

Patient and Image Receptor (IR) Positioning :- Patient sits or lies supine on the X-ray table with both lower limbs extended.

Rotate the affected leg medially until both malleoli are equidistant from the image receptor (IR).

Dorsiflex the ankle :- Maintain the position using a bandage strapped around the forefoot and held by the patient.

Position the IR with its lower edge just distal to the plantar aspect of the heel.

Direction and Centre of X-ray Beam
Central Ray (CR): Directed cranially at an angle of 40° to the plantar aspect of the heel.

Centre Point: Plantar aspect of the heel at the level of the tubercle of the 5th metatarsal.
Collimate the beam to the calcaneum.

Essential Image Characteristics
Subtalar joint should be clearly demonstrated.
Sustentaculum tali should be visible.
Inferior aspect of the calcaneum should be demonstrated.
Soft-tissue borders should also be visible.

Modified Cleaves Method — Mediolateral Projection of Hip & Proximal Femur

Clinical Indications :- Lateral view of the hip joint and proximal femur. Mainly used for nontraumatic hip conditions.
Do not use in suspected hip fracture, dislocation, or destructive hip disease because positioning may displace fracture fragments.

Patient Position :- Patient may be erect or supine.
Align the affected hip with the CR and midline of the table/IR.

Part Position :- Flex the knee and hip of the affected side.Place the sole of the affected foot against the inside of the opposite leg, near the knee if possible.
Abduct the affected femur 45° from vertical for the general proximal femur.Center the femoral neck to the CR and IR midline.
CR perpendicular to the IR, directed to the mid-femoral neck.

Collimation :- Collimate on all four sides to the anatomy of interest.

Respiration :- Suspend respiration during exposure.

Important Notes :- 20–30° abduction is optimal for demonstrating the femoral neck with minimal distortion in most patients.
45° abduction produces greater foreshortening of the proximal femur.
A modification is the Lauenstein-Hickey method, in which the patient rotates onto the affected side until the femur is parallel to the IR.

A 34-year-old male presented to the emergency department following a road traffic accident involving a motorcycle and a speeding car. He developed acute urinary retention following the trauma and complained of severe pain.A retrograde urethrogram (RGU) was performed to evaluate the underlying cause .What are the radiographic findings and most likely diagnosis?

23/09/2026

A 31-year-old male presented with chest pain that developed following a road traffic accident, along with progressively worsening difficulty in breathing. He was an unrestrained front-seat passenger involved in a head-on collision. He had no significant past medical or medication history. On examination, breath sounds were decreased on the left side.A chest radiograph was performed.
What is the most likely diagnosis?

22/09/2026

A 50-year-old Caucasian male with a past medical history of COPD, active half-pack per day cigarette use, and moderate amphetamine use presented to the ED with shortness of breath, denying any other medical concerns or complaints. On admission, the patient was found to have tachycardia, tachypnea, and hypoxemia, with room air saturation dropping to 88%. Physical examination revealed little to no breath sounds on the right lobe of the lung, wheezing on the left lobe, and accessory muscle use at rest. Chest x ray was ordered what are the findings and diagnosis?

Lateral Sternum Projection

Patient Position:-Patient erect (standing or sitting) with one shoulder
against the vertical Bucky.
Median sagittal plane (MSP) parallel to the image receptor. Sternum centered to the image receptor.
Hands clasped behind the back with shoulders pulled well backward.Image receptor centered 2.5 cm (1 inch) below the sternal angle.

Central Ray (CR):- Horizontal CR perpendicular to the image receptor.Center 2.5 cm below the sternal angle.

Respiration:-Exposure made on arrested full inspiration.

Technical Factors
SID: 120–150 cm (48–60 inches).

Image Evaluation Criteria
Entire sternum included.
Sternum seen in a true lateral position.
Superimposition of the posterior ribs indicates correct positioning.
Sharp bony detail with adequate exposure.

A 3-day-old male neonate presents with acute respiratory distress, abdominal distension, and hematemesis. Blood tests showed low sodium and acidosis. AP abdominal and cross-table lateral radiographs were obtained. What are the findings and most likely diagnosis?

16/09/2026

A patient presents with breathing difficulty for one week. The patient also reports an occasional dry cough for one month, along with night sweats and unintentional weight loss for the past three months.
A chest X-ray was performed. What is the most likely diagnosis based on the clinical presentation and radiographic findings?
