I want to display thumbnails of images either uploaded to the child node or to the child nodes "child node"

I have a news section and I can upload an image to the "News item" Doctype or if I have multiple images I upload them as child nodes for a slideshow gallery (News image).

The parent page of the of the "News item" currenly displays a list of the news items including thumbnails of any images uploaded to the news item. I want to be able to display the "News image" (grand child nodes) in this list as well.

But I can't get the "News image" doctypes image (newsSlideImage) to display. Only the "News item" image "newsImage" will display.

Any ideas of what I need to change in my code?

I've tried the following:

<xsl:choose>
          <xsl:when
 test="count($currentPage/ancestor-or-self::root//*  [name() = 
$documentTypeAlias2 and string(umbracoNaviHide) != '1' and @level=5]) 
&gt; 1">
              <a href="{umbraco.library:NiceUrl(@id)}" title="TEST">
                <img src="{concat(substring-before(newsSlideImage,'.'), '_thumb_150.jpg')}"/>
              </a>
          </xsl:when>
          <xsl:otherwise>
              <a href="{umbraco.library:NiceUrl(@id)}" title="{newsTitle}">
                <img src="{concat(substring-before(newsImage,'.'), '_thumb_150.jpg')}"/>
              </a>
          </xsl:otherwise>
        </xsl:choose>

Solve it:

        <xsl:choose>
          <xsl:when test=".//newsSlideImage != ''">
            <a href="{umbraco.library:NiceUrl(@id)}" title="{newsTitle}">
              <img src="{concat(substring-before(.//newsSlideImage,'.'), '_thumb_150.jpg')}"/>
            </a>
          </xsl:when>
          <xsl:otherwise>
            <xsl:if test="newsImage != ''">
              <a href="{umbraco.library:NiceUrl(@id)}" title="{newsTitle}">
                <img src="{concat(substring-before(newsImage,'.'), '_thumb_150.jpg')}"/>
              </a>
            </xsl:if>
          </xsl:otherwise>
        </xsl:choose>
