Looks like multifocal pneumonia but with other ARDS criteria: non-cardiogenic, low PaO2/FiO2 ratio ANATOMY FRAMEWORK LINES PIR ABCDs LUNG DIAGNOSES CAN’T MISS DX SMALL GROUP
133
COMMON LUNG DIAGNOSES COPD
Hyperinflation: many ribs, flattened diaphragms ANATOMY FRAMEWORK LINES PIR ABCDs LUNG DIAGNOSES CAN’T MISS DX SMALL GROUP
134
COMMON LUNG DIAGNOSES Pleural effusion
Obscured diaphragm, can do lateral or decubitus film ANATOMY FRAMEWORK LINES PIR ABCDs LUNG DIAGNOSES CAN’T MISS DX SMALL GROUP
135
COMMON LUNG DIAGNOSES Note that an infiltrate can be pneumonia, atelectasis, or a pleural effusion Atelectasis is collapsed lung so pulls the trachea toward it Pneumonia and pleural effusion are space-occupying lesions so trachea is either midline or moves away from it ANATOMY FRAMEWORK LINES PIR ABCDs LUNG DIAGNOSES CAN’T MISS DX SMALL GROUP

COMMON LUNG DIAGNOSES Pulmonary edema
Kerley B lines (lines perpendicular to chest wall extending past 2/3 of way outward), prominence of pulmonary vasculature ANATOMY FRAMEWORK LINES PIR ABCDs LUNG DIAGNOSES CAN’T MISS DX SMALL GROUP

Reticular (lines) opacities throughout ANATOMY FRAMEWORK LINES PIR ABCDs LUNG DIAGNOSES CAN’T MISS DX SMALL GROUP

COMMON LUNG DIAGNOSES Cystic fibrosis
Bronchiectasis (looks like holes with white rim) and hyperinflation ANATOMY FRAMEWORK LINES PIR ABCDs LUNG DIAGNOSES CAN’T MISS DX SMALL GROUP

CAN’T MISS DX SMALL GROUP Type of film: PA upright (heart is small) Lines/tubes/drains: telemetry wires PIR: underpenetrated (can’t see thoracic spine clearly through heart), can see 10 ribs so good inspiration (needs 9-10), slightly rotated (clavicular heads not equidistant from spinous process in midline) ABCD: trachea midline, no rib/clavicular/scapular fractures seen here, cardiac: hard to see right heart border, diaphragm: can see both costophrenic angles Lungs: upper/upper: roughly equal, middle/lingula: hazy opacity (without clear borders) in right middle lobe area, lower/lower: slightly increased opacities in right base but moreso in the RML area Diagnosis: RML pneumonia, concern for aspiration
