2 Three bullet points about pathology identified OR Management of the identified process 50 words or less Pneumonia is an infection of the lungs that causes the alveoli to become inflamed and fill with fluid. It can be bacterial, viral or fungal, and symptoms can vary from mild to severe. It is most serious in the very young and very old. Pneumonia can be diagnosed via chest x-ray (seen as abnormal densities in the lungs), physical exam (abnormal lung sounds, such as rales and ronchi, and/or blood and mucus testing. (white blood cell count or testing for specific pathogens).

Trachea Aorta Pneumothorax Collapsed Lung Left Ventricle
6 • Three bullet points about pathology identified • OR • Management of the identified process • (50 words or less) • Management: • Place patient on oxygen • Perform emergency needle decompression of right pleural space • After needle decompression, insert thoracostomy tube and continue to monitor and assess breathing.
7 Patient in the ICU becomes SOB Diagnosis: Rt. Pleural effusion
Add red arrows & captions that confirm the diagnosis and /or other abnormalities. Use blue arrows to indicate 3 normal structures. 7 RADIOLOGY EXAM: CLINICAL INDICATION: REPORT: Excess fluid has accumulated between the parietal and visceral pleura. Displacement of the right lung medially is noted due to fluid. Affected area spans the diaphragm to clavicle. CONCLUSION: Right pleural effusion Clavicle Spine of scapula Excess fluid Costophrenic angle
7 • Three bullet points about pathology identified • OR • Management of the identified process • (50 words or less) • Occurs when the pleural space accumulates an abnormal amount of fluid due to an imbalence in production and resorbtion. • Pleural space has key role in respiration through strategic chest wall movement and lung movement.
8 Diagnosis: Lt. Pleural effusion
8 Add red arrows & captions that confirm the diagnosis and /or other abnormalities. Use blue arrows to indicate 3 normal structures. RADIOLOGY EXAM: Frontal chest x-ray CLINICAL INDICATION: Dyspnea REPORT: Large fluid density collection in the Lt lung base typical of a large pleural effusion. CONCLUSION: Large left effusion Fluid accumulation in pleural cavity Clavicle Rt. Hemi diaphragm
8 Three bullet points about pathology identified OR Management of the identified process (50 words or less) To improve patient comfort and lung function a thoracentesis is required. Fluid is analyzed in the lab to determine the etiology and respective treatment options of the effusion. For example , if caused by CHF diuretics can be used. In case of recurrent effusions, pleurodesis, via thoracoscopic talc poudrage placement has been shown to be safe an d effective on preventing future effusions.
9 Diagnosis: Et tube distally placed in Rt. main stem bronchus with atelectasis of the left lung.

Use blue arrows to indicate 3 normal structures. 9 RADIOLOGY EXAM: Frontal chest x-ray CLINICAL INDICATION: Patient in ED s/p MVA REPORT: An endotracheal tube has been placed in the trachea and extends inferolaterally down the Rt. main stem bronchus. This is limiting the ventilation of the lt. lung with secondary atelectasis CONCLUSION: ET tube placed into the Rt. main stem bronchus. Rt. clavicle Scapula ET tube in Rt. main stem bronchus Atelectatic Lt. Lung CVP in SVC
9 • Three bullet points about pathology identified • OR • Management of the identified process • (50 words or less) • ET tubes preferentially extend laterally into the Rt. bronchus if positioned too far. • Lt. hemithorax is opacified. • Typically opacified hemithorax is due to atelectasis or large effusion.
10 33 year old male post 4-wheeler accident Diagnosis: Fracture of the Lt. 7th & 8th ribs
10 Add red arrows & captions that confirm the diagnosis and /or other abnormalities. Use blue arrows to indicate 3 normal structures. RADIOLOGY EXAM: Chest X-Ray CLINICAL INDICATION: Trauma to chest REPORT: Patient is a 33 yr old male examined post 4 wheeler accident. Fracture of the lateral aspect of the 7th and 8th ribs is demonstrated. The cardiac silhouette is normal. No pneumothorax seen. Atelectasis of the lt. lung base is noted.

10 • Three bullet points about pathology identified • OR • Management of the identified process • (50 words or less) • Fractured ribs normally take 1-2 months to completely heal. • Ribs 4-10 are the ribs mostly likely to be broken. • Complications from rib fractures include: pneumothorax, internal bleeding damage to major blood vessels and internal organs.
Mother brings child into the ED stating that the child has swallowed something and is now drooling extensively. 11 Diagnosis: Impacted coin in the esophagus.
Add red arrows & captions that confirm the diagnosis and /or other abnormalities. Use blue arrows to indicate 3 normal structures. 11 RADIOLOGY EXAM: PA & Lateral Cheat X-ray CLINICAL INDICATION:Drooling due to inability to swallow properly. REPORT: X-ray exam shows a coin in the esophagus. There is normal ventilation of the lungs. CONCLUSION: Coin in esophagus Rt. atria The size of the coin leads us to believe that it will not pass through the GI tract therefore it needs to be extracted via endoscopic removal. Sternum Trachea
11 • Three bullet points about pathology identified • OR • Management of the identified process • (50 words or less) • Coins are the most common esophageal foreign body in children. • Coins in esophagus do not generally result in airway obstruction. • In some cases, foreign bodies may pass through the GI tract without difficulties: however, they may need to be removed via endoscopy.
