y give an indicationof the position of the aneurism. Ashadow projecting to the right andlying nearer to the front than the back indicates an aneurism of the ascend-ing aorta, whereas a similar bulge to the left, and lying nearer the backthan the front, indicates the presence of an aneurism of the descendingaorta. There are other methods of detecting the position and origin of an aorticaneurism : (1) The tube may be moved from side to side or up and down. (2) The patient may be rotated, and observations made of the changein shape of the shadows as the patient moves. The size of the shadow asseen in the ordinary methods of examination is misleading, the distortioncaused by the nearness of the tube to the patient making the resultingshadows appear larger than they really are, the distortion being equal onall the structures recorded on the plate.
