Enlarged heart on x-ray

anonymously, about a boy, 1 year old

Good evening, today we did an x-ray. after suffering ARVI, there was a suspicion of pneumonia. So, in the picture the heart is enlarged. I'm in a panic. This is bad?


Hello! Because you did not indicate who was x-rayed, how old the child was, etc. - it is very difficult to say how bad it is.

You need to do an EKG and Echocardiography and see a cardiologist.
