Background

Chest radiography is one of the most commonly performed imaging studies in clinical practice. However, its diagnostic utility can be compromised by subtle findings that are easily overlooked, leading to missed or delayed diagnoses. Certain anatomical regions are particularly challenging to assess, necessitating a systematic approach to ensure comprehensive evaluation. A structured review process can help mitigate diagnostic errors, particularly in high-risk areas where subtle pathology can be missed. Radiologists must remain vigilant in detecting abnormalities, as even minor missed findings can have significant clinical implications. By understanding the common pitfalls in chest radiograph interpretation, radiologists can enhance their diagnostic confidence and accuracy.
