Overview
An x-ray may be helpful in the diagnosis of mitral stenosis. Chest X-ray in a patient with mitral stenosis might reveal left atrial enlargement. Chest X-ray findings include double right heart border, a prominent pulmonary artery (suggestive of an elevation in the pulmonary artery pressure), and kerley lines (suggestive of interstial pulmonary edema).
Chest X-Ray
An x-ray may be helpful in the diagnosis of mitral stenosis. Findings on a chest x-ray suggestive of mitral stenosis include: [1][2]
- In blue: outline of the heart (mildly enlarged)
- In yellow: double right heart border
- In red: straightening of the left border of the heart suggestive of enlargement of the left atrium
In addition, the chest X-ray reveals Kerley lines.
