- X-ray (chest), AP, Pleural Effusion and Congestive Heart Failure (CHF)
- Description:
- Clinical Information: Congestive heart failure adult male
Bilateral pleural effusions, right greater than left along with bibasilar atelectasis, otherwise the lungs are clear. There is engorgement of the central pulmonary vasculature and some haziness in the lungs with small nonspecific ill-defined densities in the right lung apex. The heart is enlarged with dilatation of the left ventricle.
Impression: Bilateral pleural effusions right greater than left
The aortic valve leaflets are calcified as well as the aortic annulus and the wall of the proximal aorta in a circumferential fashion. The maximum length of the calcification in the wall of the aorta from the annulus is approximately 5 cm. Much smaller amounts of calcification are present at the origins of the brachiocephalic, left common carotid and subclavian arteries and a small amount of calcified plaque in the arch of the aorta. The descending aorta is free of calcification. The diameter of the ascending aorta is 4.1 cm compared to the descending aorta which measures 2.3 cm.
There is focal calcification in the left anterior descending coronary artery at the level of the first diagonal branch. There is also some calcification in the right coronary artery just distal to the orifice. Small amount of calcification are identified in the distal circumflex artery. There is no pericardial thickening or fluid.

- Description:
- Technique: Single frontal portable projection.
Kerley B lines with interstitial pulmonary edema. There is diffuse prominence of the pulmonary interstitial markings, specifically in the bilateral perihilar regions. There is also cephalization of the upper lobe pulmonary vasculature. There are no pleural effusions. The heart is enlarged and the aorta is uncoiled.
Impression: Congestive heart failure.
