Chest AP view on trauma board shows low lung volumes and slight prominence of the mediastinum, likely due to portable technique and poor inspiration. Recommendation for repeat PA lateral with good inspiration to exclude mediastinal injury. Lung fields are clear with no consolidation, pulmonary edema, or pleural effusion. Minimally displaced fractures of the right anterolateral ninth and tenth ribs are noted. No pneumothorax. Heart size is within normal limits.
Acute rib fracture (Present)
