One of the most common situations involves the presence of one or more localized pulmonary infiltrates on the chest radiograph of a patient suspected of having pulmonary emboli. Certainly, the infiltrate or infiltrates could represent either inflammatory disease or pulmonary emboli with infarction. ...
Significant inconsistencies exist for minor changes and in the description of the infiltrates, although the agreement regarding the presence or absence of a consolidation/ infiltrates was high. Levels of disagreement were highest for children of less than 5 years in age34. For the radiographic ...
[1,2]Bronchial obstruction can result in pulmonary infiltrates, atelectasis, and pleural effusion. Venous obstruction leads to peribronchial cuffing, septal thickening, and localized edema. The extent of mediastinal involvement is frequently underestimated on the CXR, which necessitates the use of ...
Score 2: faint opacities (equivalent to “ground glass” on CT) Score 3: alveolar infiltrates Scores for the 6 lung zones are added together to obtain an overall "CXR SCORE" (ranging from 0 to 18). This score system was carried out both for the evaluation of the findings of COVID...
The patient developed bilateral pulmonary infiltrates on X-ray with negative sputum cultures that were unresponsive to antibiotics. This is hypothesized to have been pulmonary infiltration of myeloma cells. Unfortunately, this could not be confirmed as bronchoscopy was not performed due to patient oxygen...
The differential diagnosis in a trauma patient with respiratory distress and infiltrates on initial chest radiographs includespulmonary contusion, congestive heart failure, aspiration pneumonia, and acute respiratory distress syndrome. Symptomatic congestive heart failure may predispose patients to blunt trauma,...
