Ray (film)

X-ray film of the month.

X-ray examination of the chest revealed a large circumscribed area of absent aeration in the central portion of the left lung which extended from the axillary portion of the chest to the hilum, merging with the mediastinal structures. In the lateral projection, this circumscribed area was superimposed over the heart. An aneurysm could not be excluded; the area of diminished aeration was thought...

Finding Stomach in X-ray Film Using Computational Geometry

The human stomach i s difficult to recognize in an X-ray because of its elasticity. Global information of the stomach or areof similar density is required for easy recognition The authors have developed a method for r i d ing the bo rda line of a stomach by using computational geometry. The method i s composed of three steps. In the f i s t step, the edge is enhanced. and then edge pieces are s...

Gas under the diaphragm in x-ray film may mislead.

Gas under the diaphragm in xray film may mislead Pneumoperitonium is suspected when radiographs show the presence of gas under the diaphragm. Recognised causes of pneumoperitoneum include perforation of a viscus, recent abdominal surgery, peritoneal dialysis and Fallopian tube insufflation. Interposition of bowel, usually hepatic flexure of the colon, between the upper border of liver and the r...
