Dear Friends,
Today I am showing radiographs of a close friend of mine, a 76-year-old man who had an abdominal CT for renal stones. Some abnormalities were detected at the base of the right lung, and chest radiographs and CT were done.

Dear Friends,
Today I want to try a new way of presenting cases: conventional PA and lateral radiographs will be shown on Monday, followed by additional images on Wednesday. Hope this approach will have more educational value. If it works well, I will do it more often.
