Are there any reasons for the heart to appear large on the chest X-ray?

Hi, Welcome to icliniq.com. On examining your X-ray (attachment removed to protect the patient’s identity), I find that the heart shadow is “apparently large” but actually not large.

Do white areas on the chest X-ray indicate an abnormality?

Hello, Welcome to icliniq.com. I read your query and understand your concern. Please be assured that your x-ray is normal (attachments removed to protect the patient's identity).
