What are the Common Neonatal Disorders Diagnosed Using AP Imaging?
Several neonatal disorders are commonly diagnosed using AP imaging, including:
1. Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia: AP X-rays can show the herniation of abdominal organs into the chest cavity. 2. Respiratory Distress Syndrome: Characterized by a ground-glass appearance on AP chest X-rays. 3. Heart Defects: Abnormal heart shapes and sizes can be detected using AP views. 4. Skeletal Dysplasias: Bone abnormalities can be identified through AP radiographic studies.
