Q

carotid body tumors may arise sporadically, or may be associated with MEN2, what type of ‘sign’ can be seen on imaging?

Q

carotid body tumors have nests of cells (zellballen) which are demonstrated with what stain that highlights supporting sustentacular cells?

A

S100 stain

47
Q

carotid body tumors have a prognosis of 15-40% will be malignant but cannot tell via histology, can only tell by?

A

time-see if they invade/metastasize

48
Q

Pattern of bronchopneumonia is the MC, we will see it as viral, bacterial, atypical, etc. What is a characteristic finding on radiology?

A

Tree in bud (branch with buds coming off) - centered around airways ***multilobar

49
Q

A

Bulging fissure sign *stays in single lobe

50
Q

Abscess formation is seen in lobar pneumonia with an airfluid level = which is characteristic of ?

A

cystic space/asbcess

51
Q

Normal lungs have airways distributed centrally with gas filled alveolar parenchyma occupying the peripheral lung fields (dark). In bronchiectasis there is an abnormal persistent widening of the airways often with extension?

A

into the peripheral lung fields (white in dark areas close to pleural surface)

52
Q

Normally, airway markings are central, in bronchiectasis or situs inversus d/t kartagener syndrome with primary ciliary dyskinesis, CF, ABPA, tuberculosis or youngs syndrome, what can be seen

A

abnormal dilation and extension of airway spaces into peripheral fields

53
Q

central Bat wing means white in the middle to out and peripheral bat wing means white around the outside, dark in the middle. Pulmonary edema, pneumoias (viral), HS pneumonitis, inhalation injury and anything favoring what vascular/airway involvement?

A

Proximal (batman is white)

54
Q

Reverse bat wing infiltrates can be seen in fibrosis, idopathic pulmonary fibrosis, sarcoidosis, is more at the base and or periphery, and occurs in anything that favors?

A

peripheral involvement (batman is black)

55
Q

hypersensitivity pneumonitis follows the airways (centrally white batwing) while sarcoidosis follows WHAT, which increases pleural involvement forming a reverse batwing (peripheral black in)?

A

Lymphatics

56
Q

Pulmonary edema gives us batwing on radio because of the backup from site of occlusion (hydrostatic), backing up from left heart chambers (CHF), why does ARDS give us white out on imaging?

A

ARDS is associated with white out because it is permeative - all alveoli fill at the same time - occuring in the entire lung

57
Q

What tumor is fibrous tissue with benign glandular epithelium around hyaline cartilage- coin lesion on CT, fine marble with smooth edges **POPCORN CALCIFICATION?

A

hamartoma

58
Q

If you see a laminated, diffuse lesion on CT, you should think of old?

A

granulomas

59
Q

Worrisome for Malignancy?
Larger size
rate of growth (increasing rapidly)
Solid nature of tumor (more solid =worse)
Irregular borders of tumor
If one sees calcification is it more likely benign or malig?

A

BENIGN mostly

60
Q

Patient characteristics for malignancy?
Age of <35 less likely cancer
Smoker**
history of ?

A

malignancy - metastasis

61
Q

What are the guidlines that basically determines if one should biopsy, have a follow up imaging or be left alone?

A

fleischner guidelines

62
Q

Which tumor of the lungs willNOT follow pattern of suspected malignant features?

63
Q

Adenocarcinoma in situ is know to have what tpye of appearance?

A

ground glass appearance

64
Q

Invasive adenocarcinoma is a solid tumor that entraps the airway into the tumor, preserving them, what can be seen radiographically?

A

Bubble lucencies

65
Q

SCC is a solid magnifying tumor that is commonly seen with what on imaging?

A

cavitation

66
Q

Resorptive atelectasis reflects the radiating pattern of the airways, something is clogging the airway leading to the lungs collapse, what often occurs centrally due to its assocaition with damage airway epithelium?

A

Squamous carcinoma (white keratinized nodule occluding airway)

67
Q

Endobronchial tumors like SCC in the airway are occlusive and cause extensive post - obstructive?

A

atelectasis/pneumonia

68
Q

Along with mucus, a foreign body and SCC, what other type of tumor can cause airway obstruction, leading to WEDGE shapped atelectasis = resorption?

A

Carcinoid tumors

69
Q

Why do we want an expiratory film during pneumothorax?

A

the thoracic cavity expands and reduces with normal breathing cycles, but air trapped in the thoracic cavity (pneumothorax) is a FIXED volume

70
Q

Note: tension pneumothorax on expiratory decreases volume in the thoracic cavity which allows us to see tru damage

A
