A member asked:

What does it means if my cardiac size cannot evaluated (ap view)?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Chest xray: There are certain technical factors associated with a PA view of the chest which can interfere with judging cardiac size. You need to discuss your situation with your Doc, it could easily mean nothing related to your body but be a technical issue.
