Situs inversus totalis (SIT) is a rare anatomical anomaly where the internal organs are oriented in a mirror-image fashion compared to typical human anatomy. Radiographic techniques play a crucial role in identifying and elucidating these anatomical variations. It is essential for medical practitioners to be vigilant for this anomaly during preoperative evaluations.
