  1. X-ray (chest), PA, Adult Male, Tuberculosis

    show more
    Description: Findings: Soft tissues of chest wall are unremarkable. Bones are intact. Cardiomediastinal silhouette, aorta and pulmonary vasculature are normal. Left hilar region appears elevated and there are streaky densities extending into the left upper lung zone. There is patchy density with some areas of confluence in the left upper lobe, more so in the apical region. Some cavitary areas are identified. The remainder of the lungs appear relatively clear with mild pulmonary hyperexpansion. There is left apical pleural thickening, remainder of the costophrenic angles are sharp. Subdiaphragmatic structures are normal. Impression: Infiltrates in left upper lobe, pleural thickening, hilar elevation, streaky densities and areas of cavitation are consistent with tuberculosis. Also consider old tuberculosis changes with superimposed pneumonia. Mild asthmatic changes also seen.

    show more
    Description: 1. Miliary pattern of lung disease with innumerable discrete opacities usually the size of a millet seed (1-3 mm) more or less evenly distributed throughout both lungs. This finding is highly suggestive of disseminated M. tuberculosis, but may also be seen with fungal, viral, parasitic, bacterial, neoplastic, and inflammatory lung diseases as well. 2. Tracheostomy tube suggests this is a very sick patient. 3. Indistinct opacities that distort the mediastinal contour suggest mediastinal lymph node enlargement. Note the mediastinal borders on the comparison view. 4. Indistinct heart border demonstrating silhouette sign. Note distinct borders on comparison view.
