A young lady with dysphagia

Abstract

Chest radiograph is one of the most commonly employed imaging modalities in primary care. It may be done for symptomatic patients or routine health screening. Hence, it is important for a primary care physician to be able to interpret chest radiograph systematically in relation to patient’s clinical history. Here, we would like to illustrate a case of abnormal chest radiograph detected during health screening.
