Chest x-ray question

Hi All,

I got the report for my latest chest x-ray, and wondered if all of

you wonderful medical people out there can help me translate it.

Findings: There is satisfactory inspiratory effort with symmetrical

inflation of the lungs. The cardiomediastinal structures are in a

midline position. The heart size is normal. The cardiothoracic

ratio measures 16.5/33.5. The aortic arch is tortuous. There is

minimal prominence of the pulmonary vessels. There are no other

abnormalities.

Impression: No acute cardiopulmonary disease. Recommend clinical

correlation. If there is strong clinical suspicion, a repeat chest x-

ray should be obtained.

Is there anything in this that I should be concerned about, even if

not related to my surgery on Friday?

Any help is mighty appreciated.
