Xray showing Hospital Gown?

Xray showing Hospital Gown?

Hi. I've got oesteoporosis and I managed to fall out of bed (embarrassing I know.) Went to hospital and had 2 xrays, they were getting ready to keep me in. Then the specialist came down and claimed that the line on the xrays was the hospital gown. Has anybody else had this? I was under the impression that hospital gowns were intended to stop any confusion.

Hello!

Follow up with another X-ray to be sure, check the lining of the gown and if it is cotton then it should not raise any concern.

Sometimes a foreign body may cause confusion; Radiologist is an expert in his field and let him/her comment before you take this version.

Take care!
