Katz - Respiratory Tract Imaging Flashcards
Identify

Streptococcus pneumoniae
Identify

Staphylococcus aureus
Identify

Klebsiella Pneumonia
Bulging fissure sign

Identify

Aspiration pneumonia
When recumbent (alcoholic) aspiration usually occurs into the superior segments of the lower lobes or the posterior segment of the upper lobes.
Right side is more often effected.

Identify

Interstitial pneumonia
Viral pneumonia - Mycoplasms pneumoniae and Pneumocystic jiroveci (PCP - old name)

Identify

Mycoplasma Pneumonia

Identify

Cavitary pneumonia
Mycobacterium tuberculosis
Reactivation tuberculosis
Cavities in upper lobes, thin walled and no air-fluid level
Identify

Ghon lesion
Calcified tuberculous granuloma
Identify

Ranke complex
When associated with a calcified ipsilateral hilar node
Identify

Pneumothorax
Air enters the pleural space
Lung collapses
thin white line outlined by air on both sides
Identify

Upper Lobe Bullous emphysema

Identify

Scapula
Identify

Tension pneumothorax
Loss of air into the pleural space
May cause a shift of the heart and mediastinal structures away from the side of the pneumothorax

Identify

Right pneumothorax
Causes: spontaneous - rupture from bleb
Traumatic
Diseases that stiffen the lung
Identify

Spontaneous pneumothorax

Identify

RDS Pneumothorax
Respiratory Distress Syndrome
Identify

Trauma pneumothorax
Identify

Pneumomediastinum
Newborn
Presence of extraluminal gas within the mediastinum
Identify

Pneumopericardium
Adults - penetrating injury or surgery
Pediatrics - not related to penetrating injury; genetic
Identify

Subcutaneous Emphysema
Air expands into the soft tissue of the neck, chest and abdominal walls.

Identify

Pneumomediastinum with subcutaneous emphysema
Retrosternal chest pain and Hx of bronchial asthma
Identify
Which lobe?

Adenocarcinoma
LUL?
Distinguish between a nodule and a mass.
Nodule is usually less than 3 cm while a mass is greater than 3 cm.
Identify

Granuloma
