A member asked:

Is having apicolordotic view is dangerous?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No : This means that the radiologist needs to see the top portion of your lung ( the apex) more clearly. Unless you have recent exposure to tuberculosis or have lived outside of the U.S. This is most commonly an assessment of a region of scarring. Obtaining prior chest radiographs is extremely helpful if apical,lordotic view is requested.
