Q

what happens to alveoli to cause alveolar pulmonary pattern

A

alveolar filled with cells: fluid, blood
or
alveolar collapsed or never opened for air→ poor surfactant

can not see pulomonary vessels= they are white and now lung is white no contrast

16
Q

differentials for alveolar pulmonary pattern

A
  • Bronchopneumonia
  • Edema → Cardiogenic vs. Non-cardiogenic
  • Hemorrhage (contusions) → trauma
  • Atelectasis (collapse, loss of volume)
  • Neoplasia

Lung lobe torsion
Infarct/pulmonary thromboembolism

soft tissue opacity
can not see pulmonary vessels
+/- air bronchogram
+/- lobar sign

17
Q

ventral often asymmetric alveolar pulmonary pattern dDx

A

Bronchopneumonia → infectious pneumonia, aspiration pneumonia

18
Q

perihilar (to caudodorsal) alveolar pulmonary pattern dDx

A

cardiogenic edema (dog)

19
Q

caudodorsal alveolar pulmonary pattern dDx

A

non-cardiogenic edema (neurogenic)
edema

20
Q

diffuse alveolar pulmonary pattern dDx

A

severe disease: pneumonia, edema, hemorrhage, ARDS, near drowning, smoke inhalation

21
Q

focal patchy +/- chest wall trauma (rib fracture, swelling) alveolar pulmonary pattern dDx

A

pulmonary contusion
hemorrhage

22
Q

unilateral, ventral with mediastrinal shift to the same side alveolar pulmonary pattern dDx

A

atelectasis

23
Q

Ddx

A

penumonia

Cranio- and caudoventral alveolar pattern – Just think ventral

alveolar pulmonary pattern
soft tissue opacity
can not see pulmonary vessels
+/- air bronchogram
+/- lobar sign

24
Q

DDx

A

cardiogenic pulmonary edema
perihilar to caudodorsal alveolar pattern (R>L)

cardiomegaly- enlarged L atrium and ventricle

enlarged pulmonary veins

alveolar pulmonary pattern
soft tissue opacity
can not see pulmonary vessels
+/- air bronchogram
+/- lobar sign

25
Q

ddx

A

non cardiogenic pulmonary edema

caudodoral
diffuse if severe

alveolar pulmonary pattern
soft tissue opacity
can not see pulmonary vessels
+/- air bronchogram
+/- lobar sign

26
Q

DDx

A

pulmonary contusions

focal patchy +/- chest wall trauma (rib fractures, swelling)

alveolar pulmonary pattern
soft tissue opacity
can not see pulmonary vessels
+/- air bronchogram
+/- lobar sign

27
Q

DDX

A

atelectasis/collapse

lung lobe collapsed- loss of volume
mediastinum (heart is shifted towards)

can be positional- if laying on same side for awhile

can be pathologic: bronchical obstruction: pneumonia, mucus, cancer, foreign body

extra-luminal obstruction: cancer, tracheobronchial lymph nodes

alveolar pulmonary pattern
soft tissue opacity
can not see pulmonary vessels
+/- air bronchogram
+/- lobar sign

28
Q
A

bronchial pulmonary pattern

29
Q

two causes of bronchial pulmonary pattern

A

bronchial wall thickening- allergic or infectious bronchitis

peri-bronchial infiltrates- pneumonia, edema, neoplastic cells

30
Q

tram lines or donuts describe — pattern

A

bronchial pulmonary pattern- caused by bronchial or peribronchial thickening

31
Q
A

bronchial pulmonary pattern
donuts

  • overal pulmonary opacity is not markedly increased- alveoli are still air filled
  • typically diffuse (generalized throughout the lung)
32
Q
A

bronchial pulmonary pattern: donuts and tram lines

Bronchiectasis(dilation)
bronchial dilation- does not taper
usually acquired, secondary to chronic bronchial disease

33
Q

main DDX for bronchial pulmonary pattern

A
  • Chronic bronchitis (e.g. allergic) – dogs, cats
  • Feline asthma
  • Parasitic (e.g. aelurostrongylus; and in cats, heartworm)
  • Eosinophilic bronchopneumopathy in dogs (can also cause other patterns)
  • Infectious bronchitis (e.g. bacterial such as Bordetella) →Often see other lung patterns too, owing to presence of bronchopneumonia

Sometimes pulmonary edema
Rarely, neoplastic infiltrate
Bronchial wall mineralization – Incidental usually

34
Q

what kind of pattern

A

bronchial pulmonary pattern

Hyperinflation
 Diaphragm flattened on lateral
 Diaphragm tented on VD
 Lungs extend cd to ribs on lateral (goes past T13)
 Ribs perpendicular to the spine on VD

35
Q

cat DDX

A

feline asthma

bronchical pulmonary pattern

hyperinflation
right middle lung lobe- mucous plug cause atelectasis- alveolar pattern, lobe small, other lung lobes get bigger to take over
