I recently went to the ED for elevated b/p 151/101... Had a chest X-ray PA& Lateral.. On my left breast... Is this a rupture?
Answer: Rupture Your chest X ray shows gas in your stomach, which is quite normal. A chest X ray will not show a ruptured gel implant. You do not need an X ray to show a ruptured saline implant--it will just deflate.

Answer: Is this a rupture? (photos) Thank you very much for your question and chest x-ray photograph. Fortunately, there is no evidence of a rupture on this chest x-ray. The darkness on the left side, which you are looking at, is air in your stomach. Additionally, chest x-rays are not used to determine if an implant has ruptured.

Answer: How can I tell if my #breastimplant is ruptured ? Hi Athena,It is impossible to tell from an x-ray if your implant has ruptured. The two ways to know for sure if you have an implant rupture --1) to perform an MRI 2) to operate and remove the implantShould you wish to seek an opinion on your implant be sure to see a surgeon with at least one if not all of these credentials: *Board Certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery -- The gold star symbol*A member of the ASPS (American Society of Plastic Surgeons) -- The circle symbol*A member of the ASAPS (American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons) -- the Queen Nefertitti symbol with a TriangleVery best to you. -Brian Coan, MD, FACS
