A member asked:
Is it possible for you to have shadows on the heart when you have a chest xray?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: An abnormal shadow overlying the heart shadow could be from pneumonia, cysts, tumors, fluid collections, etc. If felt to be abnormal, ct of the chest is frequently done to further define such issues.
