  2. Usual interstitial pneumonia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Usual_interstitial_pneumonia

    The differential diagnosis includes other types of lung disease that cause similar symptoms and show similar abnormalities on chest radiographs. Some of these diseases cause fibrosis, scarring or honeycomb change. The most common considerations include: chronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis; non-specific interstitial pneumonia; sarcoidosis

  3. Ground-glass opacity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground-glass_opacity

    When a substance other than air fills an area of the lung it increases that area's density. On both x-ray and CT, this appears more grey or hazy as opposed to the normally dark-appearing lungs. Although it can sometimes be seen in normal lungs, common pathologic causes include infections, interstitial lung disease, and pulmonary edema. [2] [3]

  4. Diffuse idiopathic pulmonary neuroendocrine cell hyperplasia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffuse_idiopathic...

    The nodules have an indolent pattern of growth and are found throughout the lungs. The nodules are typically rounded and well-defined. Upon surgical resection, histologically the nodules are found to be typical carcinoids or carcinoid tumorlets depending on size. [citation needed]

  5. Dupuytren's contracture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dupuytren's_contracture

    Dupuytren's contracture (also called Dupuytren's disease, Morbus Dupuytren, Palmar fibromatosis and historically as Viking disease or Celtic hand) is a condition in which one or more fingers become permanently bent in a flexed position. [2]

  6. Interstitial lung disease - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interstitial_lung_disease

    Interstitial lung disease (ILD), or diffuse parenchymal lung disease (DPLD), [3] is a group of respiratory diseases affecting the interstitium (the tissue) and space around the alveoli (air sacs) of the lungs. [4] It concerns alveolar epithelium, pulmonary capillary endothelium, basement membrane, and perivascular and perilymphatic tissues. It ...

  7. Crackles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crackles

    Crackles are the clicking, rattling, or crackling noises that may be made by one or both lungs of a human with a respiratory disease during inhalation, and occasionally during exhalation. They are usually heard only with a stethoscope ("on auscultation"). Pulmonary crackles are abnormal breath sounds that were formerly referred to as rales. [2]

  8. Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pneumonoultramicroscopicsi...

    Any references on the internet to pneumono­ultra­micro­scopic­silico­volcano­coniosis or silicosis being caused by 'sharp particles [which] lacerate lining of lungs; causing victim to leak air from their lungs while simultaneously bleeding into their lung cavity' [13] are inaccurate. Particles of a size able to enter the lung (< 10 μm ...

  9. Lung nodule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lung_nodule

    A lung nodule or pulmonary nodule is a relatively small focal density in the lung. A solitary pulmonary nodule (SPN) or coin lesion, [1] is a mass in the lung smaller than three centimeters in diameter. A pulmonary micronodule has a diameter of less than three millimetres. [2] There may also be multiple nodules.
