Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for writing to Health Care magic, I am Dr , Muhammad Ahmad , I have read your question closely, I understand your concern and will be helping you with your health related problem.
Your report is almost a normal Xray there are tow things worth considering here :
1) Tenting of left hemi diaphragm:
This is very non specific it might just be normal or might be due to some underlying cause for which I would need to know your history, what are the problems your are facing and why did you get your X.ray done?
2) Tortuous Aorta:
It is usually difficult to provide accurate, size , shape and contour of aorta the largest vessel coming out of heart, it can usually mean two things:
A) Aorta is enlarged. This needs attention.
B) Aorta has more bends then one would expect, this is common in elderly people.
What I can advise you about aorta is that you can ask your cardiologist to review the Xray , if he finds something alarming he can get high end tests like echcardiography, CT scan or MRI done , X.ray chest is just an indication, it can not surely tell if there is a problem but if your cardiologist thinks that too then he can do a work up regarding that.
Rest of the Xray is normal.
I hope this answered your question, If you have more queries I am happy to answer you.
Regards.
Dr.Muhammad Ahmad


Thank you for your reply. Answer to your questions on "Why did I get my Xray done." The Xray was part of my annual checkup. Unfortunately, since I got the results of my annual check, I have not seen or consulted any doctors to discussed the results as yet. I would like for you to review the results if this is possible. Please let me know if it possible so that I can upload the results. I am a bit concerned about my aorta because I started feeling as if I have heart palpation on my chest or feeling discomfort. However, breathing is normal and no pain.
Thank you. XXXXXXX XXXX
Sure I can review your reports.
