Cardiomegaly Grade I
Cardiomegaly grading depends con an index determined by X Rays.
Depending on the size of the heart, cardiomegaly can be classified into 4 degrees, so the cardiothoracic index is calculated through a posteroanterior chest radiograph, where the transverse diameter of the cardiac silhouette is measured with the greater transverse diameter of the thorax and, depending on the value the degrees can be:
Cardiomegaly Cardiothoracic index
Grade I (Mild) 0.5 to 0.55
Grade II (Moderate) 0.55 to 0.60
Grade III (Moderate to Severe) 0.60 to 0.65
Grade IV (Severe) > 0,65
