“…SMD : It is a heterogeneous group of disorders consisting of several different varieties; SMD is manifested on radiographs as a combination of metaphyseal and spinal abnormalities. The spinal manifestations vary, ranging from universal platyspondyly and medially located rounded pedicles (in Kozlowski subtype) to rounded vertebral bodies (in Sutcliffe subtype) 22 ( Fig. 19 ).…”

Chest X-ray (CXR) is the most commonly used imaging modality. It is commonly used for respiratory or cardiac ailments; however, it is also used routinely as a part of skeletal surveys. In the case of suspected skeletal dysplasia, the viewer is alerted regarding the presence of some skeletal abnormality. But in case of a routine CXR performed for some other reason, it is not uncommon to miss subtle pointers of skeletal dysplasia. Sometimes routine CXR is the first pointer to alert a radiologist toward some generalized skeletal anomaly and therefore, initiate its proper evaluation by the skeletal survey.
