    This document lists various medical conditions that can be detected by chest x-rays and spiral CT scans of the lungs. Chest x-rays can identify issues like fluid in the lungs, collapsed lungs, heart failure, and tumors, while spiral CT scans are particularly good for detecting blood clots in the lungs. Both imaging tests can find signs of infection, bleeding, swelling, and other abnormalities in the chest and lungs.
