Overview
There is no primary role for chest X-ray in diagnosis or evaluation of autoimmune hemolytic anemia, but chest X-ray can be useful to help diagnose other conditions associated with autoimmune hemolytic anemia, such as volume overload states from frequent transfusions.
Chest X Ray
There is no primary role for chest X-ray in diagnosis or evaluation of autoimmune hemolytic anemia. However, chest X-ray may be useful in other conditions associated with hemolytic anemia, such as sickle cell anemia with hyperhemolytic crisis. Chest X-ray can also be useful in the case of suspected transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI) or transfusion-associated circulatory overload (TACO), which are complications of frequent red blood cell transfusions.[1] Some patients with autoimmune hemolytic anemia will experience these complications and will require chest X-ray for further evaluation.
