    Notes: Abstract The usefulness of routine overhead views in the double-contrast investigation of the stomach and duodenum was evaluated. In this series, overhead views missed 26% of the lesions diagnosed and diagnosed no lesion not also seen on spot films. The authors could thus find no indication for the routine use of overhead views. It is concluded that overhead projections add no information to the examination, are not cost-effective, and can be eliminated without detriment to the patient.

    The distinctly visible right upper lobe bronchus on the lateral chest: a clue to adolescent cystic fibrosis (1985)

    Notes: Abstract Radiographic differentiation between cystic fibrosis and asthma presenting in teenagers and young adults can be difficult. Many patients with a late presentation of cystic fibrosis display minimal changes on a chest radiograph. However, a large majority (90%) of cystic fibrosis patients with an essentially normal PA chest radiograph will have a distinctly outlined orifice of right upper lobe bronchus on a lateral chest film as opposed to a small number of asthmatics (25%) or normal patients (18%). This observation correlates well with the pathologic finding that the initial pulmonary involvement in cystic fibrosis is typically in the right upper lobe in adolescents. Teenage or young adult patients presenting with a history of repeated respiratory infections, asthma-like symptoms and a distinctly visible right upper lobe bronchus on a lateral chest film should be sweat-tested to exclude cystic fibrosis.
