Roentgenographic Scanning of the Chest

SHERMAN W. ATWELL

1) The standard, flat roentgenogram of the chest can be inaccurate and misleading.

2) The single stereoroentgenogram of the chest is not always entirely comprehensive.

3) A comparison method of stereoscopically scanning an anatomical area may provide a check against error.

4) A comparison method of stereoscopically scanning an anatomical area can possibly demonstrate pathology not noted in another view.

5) The areas of pathology seen in both views will afford a comparison evaluation of extent, position, and shape.
