A member asked:
Is coughing during the test of x-ray can cause hyperaeration of lungs as what stated in conclusion?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Coughing causes movement and blurriness of xr or called movement artifacts. If the ribs and organs are clearly delineated, it would then be a good xr and the findings as noted would be accurate.
