On (b)(6) 2019, the radiographic technologist at (b)(6) in the united states reported that when they were performing a chest x-ray using their optima xr240amx mobile radiographic system, the technologist mistakenly took the image with the detector upside down. After the image appeared on the system, it came up on the acquisition screen upside down and displayed the correct external lead marker. The technologist then corrected the image orientation by rotating the image 180 degrees but failed to change the dicom orientation tags after rotating the image. Therefore, when the image was sent to pacs, the image was hanging correctly and showed the correct external annotation marker, but the dicom orientation tag was incorrect. Therefore, the image read l (left) with an external marker and r (right) for the dicom tag. The emergency room (er) physician read the images using the dicom orientation tag and had a chest tube placed into the incorrect lung that resulted in a pneumothorax.
