HX egj x2, muscular dystrophy. Ct2. Bi TECHNIQUE: Imaging protocol: Computed tomographic angiography of the chest with contrast. 3D rendering (Not supervised by radiologist): MIP and/or 3D reconstructed images were created by the technologist. Radiation optimization: All CT scans at this facility use at least one of these dose optimization techniques: automated exposure control; mA and/or kV adjustment per patient size (includes targeted exams where dose is matched to clinical indication); or iterative reconstruction. Contrast material: ISOVUE 370; Contrast volume: 59 ml; Contrast route: INTRAVENOUS (IV);  COMPARISON: CR XR PORTABLE CHEST 7/17/2022 9:16 PM FINDINGS: Limitations: The study is limited by patient body habitus and respiratory motion artifact. There is also beam hardening artifact present, created by placement of the upper extremities within the scanning field. Pulmonary arteries: Pulmonary arteries are normal in caliber. No filling defects are demonstrated. No evidence of pulmonary embolism, within the technical limits of the examination. Aorta: The thoracic aorta appears unremarkable. No aneurysm or dissection demonstrated. Lungs: Nonspecific ground-glass infiltrates throughout both lungs. No consolidative pulmonary infiltrate noted. Pleural spaces: No pneumothorax. No pleural effusion. Heart: No cardiomegaly. No pericardial effusion. Lymph nodes: Unremarkable. No enlarged lymph nodes. Bones/joints: Degenerative changes of the thoracic spine noted. No acute osseous abnormality. Soft tissues: Unremarkable.    IMPRESSION: 1. The study is limited by patient body habitus and respiratory motion artifact. There is also beam hardening artifact present, created by placement of the upper extremities within the scanning field. 2. Nonspecific ground-glass infiltrates throughout both lungs.
