Despite increases in CT use, radiography continues to be an efficacious and cost effective tool to evaluate mediastinal and parenchymal lung disease. This exhibit will revisit the fundamental lines & stripes of chest radiography and reinforce these concepts in a quiz format using examples from our teaching center.  After completion of this exhibit, the reader will have the tools to detect subtle abnormalities of both the frontal and lateral chest radiograph.

• Illustrated review of the normal lines & stripes of the chest radiograph. • Series of frontal or lateral chest radiographs, each with an abnormality of one or more of the fundamental lines or stripes. These cases will be animated, showing the pertinent abnormality. Correlation with cross sectional imaging will be provided with each case
