  2. Anatomy

  3. Normal PA

  4. Normal Lateral

  5. The Chest X-ray in Disease

  6. Basic Patterns of Disease Air-Space Disease VS Interstitial Disease

  7. Pulmonary Acinus

  8. Air space disease

  9. Consolidation • Means “solid lung” • Implies that there is “air-space disease” • May occur with or without volume loss

  10. Consolidation without volume loss

  11. Air Bronchogram

  12. Air Bronchogram

  13. Characteristics of Air Space Disease • Acinar shadow • Homogeneous density (consolidation) • “Silouette”sign • Loss of distinct margins next to consolidation • Air bronchogram • Non-segmental distribution

  14. Consolidation RML abnormal normal

  15. Consolidation RML normal abnormal

  16. Causes of Airspace Disease • Infection • Hemorrhage • Edema • Neoplasm • Idiopathic

  17. Consolidation withvolume loss “Atelectasis” or “collapse”

  18. Normal Collapse LLL

  19. Collapse LLL

  20. Direct signs of volume loss • Movement of a fissure

  21. Indirect signs of volume loss • Upward shift of the diaphragm • Mediastinal shift to that side • Movement of main-stem bronchus • Hypovascularity of remaining lung due to hyperinflation • Lung looks darker
