Radiographic evidence of congestion on a CXR is very common in patients with AHF and is associated with other clinical measures of worse prognosis. Signs of heart failure are highly prevalent in patients presenting to hospital with acute heart failure and when combined into a chest x-ray score, relate to a worse long term risk of death.
