____% of TB cavitations found where?
upper half
aspiration pneumonia found where?
right lung base MC
Bronchogenic carcinoma can be found where MC?
segments 123
peripheral tumors are ____% 123

bronchiectasis has an affinity for
lower half of lung
anywhere
hematoma, congetital lung cyst, wengeners
Thick/fuzzy
STAPH AUREUS, Infarction, Wegeners
Thin
klebsiella, bronchiectasis, Bullae, Pneumatocele, congenital lung cysts
thick or thin
TB, Rheumatoid
Thick well defined
mets, Bronchogenic carcinoma
classic indicator of cavitation
fluid level
not have fluid level
TB(may or may not), Bronchiectasis, Non infected Bulla, Pneumatocele (may or may not), Wegeners
pores of cohn
interalveolar
acute inflammation of the tracheobranchial tree, generally self-limited and with eventual complete healing and return to function
acute bronchitis may have dry or productive cough
negative chest x-ray supports the dx of
acute bronchitis
self limiting acute process in acute bronchitis may mean
weeks to couple months
prolonged exposure to the nonspecific bronchial irritants and accompanied by mucus hyper secretion and structural alterations in the bronchi
Chronic Bronchitis:biggest producer is cigarette smoke:frequently negative chest X-ray
smokers typically have negative chest X-ray until
very bad things happen, sometime tram lines are present near bronchi
conduction zone issue that causes the bronchi to dilate
bronchiectasis:permanent
characterized by irreversible cylindrical, saccular or cystic dilation of bronco with secondary infection
bronchiectasis
______ can predispose to broncheictasis
kartagener syndrome (dismotile or disconnection ciliary syndrome)
