A member asked:

Do enlarged supraclavicular lymph nodes show up on a chest x-ray?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Unlikely: While possible in a slim patient with a Very enlarged supraclavicular node, normally the chest x-ray would look unremarkable and you'd need a chest CT to identify this finding.

Dr Feola and another doctor agreed
