Get Through Unit 1 Flashcards
Ix for PE vs pneumonia
CTPA
Thoracic duct usually drains into
Junction of left subclavian and internal jugular veins
Commonest finding with previous ARDS
Reticular changes in anterior lung
CXR changes in acute rejection of lung transplant
Pleural effusion and septal thickening without left ventricular dysfunction
Ovoid, pleural based enhancing lesion with no bone destruction, effusion or volume loss
Pleural fibroma
right sided arch with mirror branching
tetralogy of fallot
Origin of bronchial arteries
2 left sided come from aorta,
single right comes from 3rd posterior intercostal artery
Ix to rule out endocarditis
Transoesophageal echo
Focal overdistension of the ET tube cuff
tracheal injury
Focal uterine cavity PET uptake
Can be normal due to menstruating
Haematoma following renal AML embolisation
Post-embolization rupture
Matched ventilation and perfusion deficit with similar opacity on CXR
Intermediate probability of PE
SVCO due to superior mediastinal mass, Ix
Biopsy
Paratracheal mass with calcification causing SVC and right main bronchus compression
Fibrosing mediastinitis
Inhalation of smoke on CXR
Pulmonary oedema
Unilateral leg swelling, negative leg doppler, Ix
Pelvic US to look for proximal thrombus
Collapse vs consolidation
Collapse is ill defined
Chronic vs acute PE
Obtuse vs acute angle with vessel wall
Dialysis pt, calcified vessels and calcified upper lobe opacities
Chronic renal failure
Macleod’s syndrome aka
Swyer James
Left atrial myxoma (CXR)
enlarged left atrium, pulmonary oedema, calcified lung nodules
Fatty chest lesion with soft tissue stranding which enhances
Liposarcoma
CT post processing to remove calcium from angio
Curved planar reformat
Commonest cause of phrenic nerve paralysis
Mediastinal small cell Ca
Cardiac MRI, best plane to assess muscle mass
Left ventricular short axis oblique
Occlusion of right brachiocephalic vein on US
Continuous monophasic flow in the right subclavian
Best predictor of post op lung function before resection for malignancy
Ventilation scintigraphy
Rounded opacity with air fluid level, Hx of previous chest trauma
Pulmonary laceration
Superior accessory fissure separates
Apical segment of lower lobes from other lower lobe segments
Which structure lies most anteriorly at the level of the thoracic inlet
Left brachiocephalic vein
Persistent left SVC drains in
Coronary sinus
First line for myocardial perfusion imaging
Adenosine
Mediastinal involvement in Hodgkin vs Non-hodgkin
Hodgkin - anterior and middle
Non-hodgkin - posterior
Lies immediately anterior to the left main bronchus att the left hilum
Left superior pulmonary vein
Right mediastinal border made up of
Right brachiocephalic vein, SVC, right atrium
Intralobar vs extralobar sequestration
Enclosed in visceral pleura vs systemic venous drainage
CTPA vs VQ dose
CTPA has higher total body dose but lower uterine dose
Which left lobe segments share a common bronchi
Anterior basal and medial basal
Mosaic vs ground glass opacification
Lucent areas have abnormally small vessels
