Cardiothoracic ratio >0.50 (posteroanterior projection) 3 points
Upper zone flow redistribution 2 points
No more than 4 points are allowed from each of three categories; hence the composite score (the sum of the subtotal from each category) has a possible maximum of 12 points.
The diagnosis of heart failure is classified as "definite" at a score of 8 to 12 points, "possible" at a score of 5 to 7 points, and "unlikely" at a score of 4 points or less.

Initial and Serial Evaluation 2022 AHA/ACC/HFSA Heart Failure Guideline (DO NOT EDIT) [2]
Clinical Assessment: History and Physical Examination 2022 AHA/ACC/HFSA Heart Failure Guideline (DO NOT EDIT) [2]
"1. In patients with HF, vital signs and evidence of clinical congestion should be assessed at each encounter to guide overall management, including adjustment of diuretics and other medications.[3][4][5][6][7][8](Level of Evidence: B-NR) "
"2. In patients with symptomatic HF, clinical factors indicating the presence of advanced HF should be sought via the history and physical examination. [9][10][11][12][13][14](Level of Evidence: B-NR) "
"3. In patients with cardiomyopathy, a 3-generation family history should be obtained or updated when assessing the cause of the cardiomyopathy to identify possible inherited disease. [15][16](Level of Evidence: B-NR) "
"4. In patients presenting with HF, a thorough history and physical examination should direct diagnostic strategies to uncover specific causes that may warrant disease-specific management. [17][18](Level of Evidence: B-NR) "
"4. In patients presenting with HF, a thorough history and physical examination should be obtained and performed to identify cardiac and noncardiac disorders, lifestyle and behavioral factors, and social determinants of health that might cause or accelerate the development or progression of HF. ([[ACC AHA guidelines classification scheme#Level of Evidence|Level of Evidence: C-EO]) "
Initial Laboratory and Electrocardiographic Testing 2022 AHA/ACC/HFSA Heart Failure Guideline (DO NOT EDIT) [2]
"2. For patients who are diagnosed with HF, laboratory evaluation should include complete blood count, urinalysis, serum electrolytes, blood urea nitrogen, serum creatinine, glucose, lipid profile, liver function tests, iron studies, and thyroid-stimulating hormone to optimize management. (Level of Evidence: C-EO) "
"3. For all patients presenting with HF, a 12-lead ECG should be performed at the initial ecounter to optimize management. (Level of Evidence: C-EO) "
Use of Biomarkers for Prevention, Initial Diagnosis, and Risk Stratification (DO NOT EDIT) [2]
"1. In patients presenting with dyspnea, measurement of B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) or N-terminal prohormone of B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) is useful to support a diagnosis or exclusion of HF. [27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38](Level of Evidence: A) "
"4. In patients at risk of developing HF, BNP or NT-proBNP-based screening followed by team-based care, including a cardiovascular specialist, can be useful to prevent the development of LV dysfunction or new-onset HF. [56][57](Level of Evidence: B-R) "
