-the pulmonary vascular patter is normal
-the cardiac shadow is not enlarged
-the diaphragm and lateral costophrenic sulci are unremarkable
-the thoracic spine is curved to the right
Impression:
Apicolondotic view is suggested to further evaluate the upper lobes

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
The over all finding is within normal limits, I am not sure for apico-lordic view unless I see the x-ray image, because if there is anything wrong in apical region then it would have been detected in Ap view also or leave little doubt for something wrong and that ought to be mentioned here, have nice day.
