Abstract
The rapid advancement of medical technology has introduced a plethora of innovative devices designed for use within the thoracic cavity. Familiarity with the characteristic imaging features of these devices, their purpose and desired positioning is crucial for radiologists to identify them promptly and accurately assess any associated complications. This pictorial review provides a comprehensive overview of the radiologic findings associated with various new chest devices, aiming to equip radiologists with the knowledge required for effective clinical management.
