Abstract

Chest X-ray (CXR) is the most commonly used imaging modality. It is commonly used for respiratory or cardiac ailments; however, it is also used routinely as a part of skeletal surveys. In the case of suspected skeletal dysplasia, the viewer is alerted regarding the presence of some skeletal abnormality. But in case of a routine CXR performed for some other reason, it is not uncommon to miss subtle pointers of skeletal dysplasia. Sometimes routine CXR is the first pointer to alert a radiologist toward some generalized skeletal anomaly and therefore, initiate its proper evaluation by the skeletal survey.
