Abstract:

The incidence of side (AP) radiography of thoraco-pleuro-mediastino-lung, the heart is the organ best developed in the transverse direction and therefore some of its cavities are tangent Get X-ray beam, it generates lateral contours mediastinal opacity, with large vessels in the heart. Other mediastinal structures, which overlap in posterior-anterior end, are difficult to see on X-ray-mediastino thoraco-pleuro-pulmonary, the incidence of side. An exception is the trachea, which is visible in the first thoracic vertebra and the superior mediastinum, as radiotransparenta structure, tubular, located on the midline. Mediastinal pleura over the structures formed by the reflection lines, separating the transparent areas of the lung mediastinal opacity. The incidence of side-mediastino radiography thoraco-pleuro-pulmonary, central radius, moving perpendicular to the sagittal plane of the mediastinum, structures are viewed obvious overlapping lung parenchyma over the mediastinum
