My baby heart apear to be big in x-ray compare to normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Heart or not: Babies heart can appear big on an x-ray because it is big, or beacuse of technique, or beacuse of a gland called the thymus that sits in front of it & may make the heart look big. All this should be sorted out by the doc that had the x-ray take.
