  3. Pulmonary consolidation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulmonary_consolidation

    Pneumonia as seen on chest X-ray. A: Normal chest X-ray. B: Abnormal chest X-ray with consolidation from pneumonia in the right lung, middle or inferior lobe (white area, left side of image). Specialty: Pulmonology

  4. Tuberculosis radiology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuberculosis_radiology

    The main chest X-ray findings that can suggest inactive TB are: [2] 1. Discrete fibrotic scar or linear opacity—Discrete linear or reticular densities within the lung. The edges of these densities should be distinct and there should be no suggestion of airspace opacification or haziness between or surrounding these densities.

  5. Pneumothorax - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pneumothorax

    A chest X-ray, computed tomography (CT) scan, or ultrasound is usually used to confirm its presence. [5] Other conditions that can result in similar symptoms include a hemothorax (buildup of blood in the pleural space), pulmonary embolism, and heart attack. [2] [11] A large bulla may look similar on a chest X-ray. [3]

  6. Mediastinal shift - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mediastinal_shift

    Chest x-ray demonstrating severe atelectasis or collapse of the right lung and mediastinal shift towards the right. Atelectasis is the partial collapse of a lung that is reversible. There are numerous etiologies, including post-operative atelectasis, surfactant deficiency, mucus plugging, and foreign body aspiration.

  7. Ground-glass opacity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground-glass_opacity

    High-resolution CT image showing ground-glass opacities in the periphery of both lungs in a patient with COVID-19 (red arrows). The adjacent normal lung tissue with lower attenuation appears as darker areas. Ground-glass opacity (GGO) is a finding seen on chest x-ray (radiograph) or computed tomography (CT) imaging of the lungs.

  8. Berylliosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berylliosis

    Given the invasive nature of a lung biopsy, diagnosis can also be based on clinical history consistent with berylliosis, abnormal chest x-ray or CT scan findings, and abnormalities in pulmonary function tests. [15] The radiologic and pathologic features of berylliosis are very similar to sarcoidosis.

  9. Hospital-acquired pneumonia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hospital-acquired_pneumonia
