Excerpt from International Clinics, Vol. 2: A Quarterly Of; Illustrated Clinical Lectures and Especially Prepared Original Articles Normal Subjects. Men Standing Position Transverse diameter Diameter of in cm. M cm. Ascending aorta In cm. In this table the transverse diameter is that of the arch of the aorta, and means the maximal distance which separates the contours of the aortic shadow on the right and left of the sternum. The chord of the aortic arch means that part of the arch where it issues from the mediastinal shadow and begins its outline on the left pulmonary field to its intersection with the pulmonary artery below. Let us emphasize again that since the size of the heart varies with weight, age, sex, muscular development, and position of the body, whether upright, sitting, or prone, also in systole and diastole, X-ray silhouettes are approximate. However, with' the systematization of methods, more accurate deductions are drawn than formerly. One of the greatest stumbling blocks to the adoption of a uniform method is the difficulty of position. Many patients cannot stand erect long enough for taking the X-ray shadow, and in the recumbent position the heart is larger, and the difficulty of placing the tube 6 feet from the patient is greater. However, this striving for a quantitative standard gives more exact information than our old general impressions. It will interest you to know in passing that the reason the heart is smaller in the standing than in the recumbent position is due to the changes of hydrostatic pressure in the inferior vena cava. From these me chanical methods of estimating the size of the heart, we will turn to our old methods of inspection, palpation, percussion, and auscultation.
