Chest Imaging Flashcards
What is the condition seen here?
- what feature indicates this.
Consolidation can be seen indicating pneumonia.
What condition can be seen here?
- what indicates this?
Empyema - indicated by fluid accumaltion in the lung.
What can be seen here?
- what is this is a early marker sign of?
Lymphadenopathy - early marker sign of TB.
What condition can be seen here?
Tension pneumothorax.
Understand this:
What condition can be seen here and what indicates this?
Right ventricular failure.
Indicated as:
- Pulmonary artery is wider than aorta.
- Enlargement of right ventricle - interventricular septum is bowed into the left ventricle.
What condition is seen here?
Sarcoidosis
Explain the staging in each of these pictures:
Sarcoidosis
Stage 1 - bihilar lymphadenopathy.
Stage 2 - Lymphadenopathy with reticular changes
Stage 3 - Lymph nodes have shrunk but parenchymal change is more prominent.
Stage 4 - Pulmonary fibrosis, extensive calcification, cavitation & cyst formation.
Identify what is seen here?
- What conditions may this be found in?
Granuloma - present in condtitions such as sarcoidosis - also found in TB.
Explain the appearance of IPF in this photo.
Marked reticular changes - fibrosis at the parenchyma.
Honeycomb change is a sign of advanced fibrosis.
Known as marked UIP.
Heterogenous appearance.
What condition can be seen here?
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis
What condition can be seen on this X-ray and CT?
Lung abscess
Lung cancer complication based on location:
Label this lung MRI view:
What condition can be seen here, what are the signs?
Miliary TB
Its name comes from a distinctive pattern seen on a chest radiograph of many tiny spots distributed throughout the lung fields with the appearance similar to millet seeds—thus the term “miliary” tuberculosis.
Miliary TB may infect any number of organs, including the lungs, liver, and spleen.
NSI appearance and histology:
What separates this appearance from IPF?
Homogenous appearance of fibrosis throughout the lung.
What can be seen on this X-ray and how would you describe it’s appearance?
PCP - pneumocystis pneumonia
Perihylar distribution with sparing of apices and peripheries.
