chest x-ray; 'Cardiomegaly'; 'Lung Opacity' | Lung volumes are low. Retrocardiac opacity with silhouetting of the left hemidiaphragm and lateral border of the descending aorta is nonspecific and could reflect any of a combination of atelectasis, focal pneumonia or even a small effusion. Right infrahilar opacity with slight indistinctness of the right heart border could reflect infection in the appropriate clinical scenario. Apparent elevation of the right hemidiaphragm may be related to positioning and technique versus volume loss. There is cardiomegaly, but no CHF. Aortic calcifications are present. No pneumothorax. |

chest x-ray; 'Lung Opacity'; 'Pleural Effusion'; 'Pneumonia' | In comparison with the study of ___, there is increased opacification in the lower ___ of the right hemithorax in this patient with severe chronic pulmonary disease and biapical scarring. These findings could reflect volume loss in the right middle and lower lobes with pleural effusion. However, much of this appearance could be a manifestation of developing pneumonia. Little change in the opacification is at the left base. |
|
chest x-ray; 'Atelectasis'; 'Cardiomegaly'; 'Pleural Effusion'; 'Support Devices' | In comparison with the study of ___, the endotracheal tube and right IJ catheter are unchanged. The nasogastric tube is not well seen, though it appears to extend at least to the upper stomach, where it crosses the lower margin of the image.

|
chest x-ray; 'Atelectasis'; 'Pneumothorax'; 'Support Devices' | As compared to ___ radiograph, a small to moderate left pneumothorax is similar when considerations are made for differences in positioning and lung volumes. Left chest tube remains in place. Slight worsening of left basilar atelectasis with otherwise similar appearance of the chest. |
|
chest x-ray; 'Cardiomegaly' | Lungs fully expanded and clear. Heart size top-normal. Normal mediastinal and hilar contours and pleural surfaces. No displaced rib fracture is seen. Although no fracture is seen, conventional chest radiographs are not sensitive for detection of chest cage trauma. Regions where there are focal findings of possible trauma should be clearly marked and imaged with bone detail views. |
|
chest x-ray; | IJ catheter tip is unchanged. Worsening pulmonary vascular congestion likely reflecting volume overload. Cardiomediastinal silhouette is notable for interval bulging of the left pulmonary outflow tract reflecting pulmonary arterial dilatation. This can be due to extensive vascular congestion and volume overload or perhaps embolic phenomena leading to acute increase in pulmonary pressures which needs to be correlated clinically. Heart size is top normal. No significant pleural effusions and no pneumothorax. |

Unchanged borderline size of the cardiac silhouette. |
|
chest x-ray; 'Atelectasis'; 'Cardiomegaly'; 'Lung Opacity'; 'Pneumonia' | No previous images. There is enlargement of the cardiac silhouette probably with some elevation of pulmonary venous pressure. Increased opacification is seen at the right base with poor definition of the hemidiaphragm but visualization of vessels coursing through the area. This could represent pleural fluid with compressive atelectasis, though the possibility of supervening pneumonia would be difficult to exclude. If clinically possible, a lateral view would be most helpful. |
|
chest x-ray; 'Atelectasis'; 'Lung Opacity'; 'Support Devices' | As compared to the previous radiograph, there is a right upper lobe atelectasis in addition to the pre-existing widespread parenchymal opacities.

The heart and mediastinal contours appear grossly stable. No definite bony abnormalities are seen. |
|
chest x-ray; 'Atelectasis'; 'Support Devices' | Previous large left pneumothorax has substantially resolved following insertion of a pigtail pleural drainage catheter ending in the left upper chest. Atelectasis at the right lung base, possibly substantial, is new. Right upper lung clear. Upper esophageal drainage tube ends intrathoracic stomach due to a chronic large hiatus hernia.

chest x-ray; 'Lung Opacity' | The cardiac silhouette is stably enlarged. Again noted is mild central pulmonary vascular congestion. The previously seen right internal jugular sheath is no longer noted. There is no pneumothorax or definite pleural effusion. No consolidation is identified. Increased conspicuity of opacity is seen at the right lung base, which may represent atelectasis, though consolidation is not excluded. An AICD is in appropriate, unchanged position. |
|
chest x-ray; 'Cardiomegaly'; 'Consolidation'; 'Lung Lesion'; 'Pleural Effusion' | Extensive consolidative abnormalities improved between ___ and ___, particularly in the lower lungs.

Single metallic clip along the left heart border is unchanged. Widespread bilateral parenchymal opacities are similar to the prior exam, possibly representing multifocal infection or ARDS. Heart size and cardiomediastinal contours are stable. |
|
chest x-ray; 'Enlarged Cardiomediastinum'; 'Lung Opacity'; 'Pneumonia' | There are extensive bilateral pulmonary opacities most likely representing multifocal pneumonia. This is less likely to be florid pulmonary edema due to lack of concomitant pleural effusions or cardiomegaly. Underlying metastatic disease cannot be excluded. There is widening of the superior aspect of the mediastinum. The heart is normal in size. A left lateral lower rib appears expanded and sclerotic likely due to metastases better evaluated on prior bone scans. |
|
chest x-ray; 'Lung Opacity'; 'Pneumonia'; 'Support Devices' | In comparison with the study of ___, the monitor and support devices remain in place. Cardiac silhouette remains within normal limits and there is no evidence of vascular congestion or pleural effusion. There is a somewhat ill of increased opacification in the right upper zone. In the appropriate clinical setting, this could be a developing area of aspiration pneumonia. |
|
chest x-ray; 'Lung Opacity'; 'Support Devices' | Two right-sided chest tubes are in unchanged position, one oriented vertically and one oriented towards the base.

chest x-ray; 'Edema'; 'Pleural Effusion'; 'Support Devices' | Left PICC line tip is at the level of mid SVC. Heart size and mediastinum are unchanged. Interval improvement in pulmonary edema is present. Bilateral pleural effusions, right more than left are noted. |
|
chest x-ray; 'No Finding'; 'Support Devices' | AP chest compared to ___: Pleural effusions have resolved. Lungs are clear. Heart size normal. Feeding tube ends in the stomach. |
|
chest x-ray; 'Atelectasis'; 'Consolidation'; 'Lung Opacity'; 'Pleural Effusion'; 'Pneumonia'; 'Support Devices' | Comparison is made to the prior study, ___. Cardiac size is top normal. Bibasilar consolidations, larger on the right side and right perihilar opacities are grossly unchanged. They are due to pneumonia. There is a new area of atelectasis in the left lower lobe. Right pleural effusion is probably unchanged allowing the difference in positioning of the patient. ET tube is in standard position. NG tube tip is out of view, below the diaphragm. |
|
chest x-ray; 'Pneumonia' | Compared to the prior radiograph, the known multifocal pneumonia with diffuse bilateral multi focal parenchymal opacities is largely stable. There is more obscuration of the left heart border. Moderate cardiomegaly is unchanged. No change in the pacemaker leads. No larger pleural effusions. |
|
chest x-ray; 'Lung Opacity'; 'Support Devices' | Comparison is made to previous study from ___. There is an endotracheal tube whose distal tip is appropriately sited, 4.2 cm above the carina. There is a right-sided PICC line with distal lead tip at cavoatrial junction. Heart size is within normal limits. No pleural effusions are seen. There is mild prominence of the pulmonary interstitial markings without overt pulmonary edema or definite consolidation. No pneumothoraces are present. |
|
chest x-ray; 'Atelectasis'; 'Cardiomegaly'; 'Pleural Effusion' | As compared to the previous radiograph, no relevant change is seen. The lung volumes remain low. Right pleural effusion with mild right basal atelectasis. Mild cardiomegaly with signs of mild-to-moderate fluid overload. Moderate enlargement of the right hilus continues to be present. Bilateral apical thickening, symmetrical in distribution. |
|
chest x-ray; 'Atelectasis'; 'Pleural Effusion'; 'Support Devices' | AP chest compared to ___, 4:01 a.m.: Left pleural effusion has been substantially drained following insertion of left pleural tube. There is probably a small-to-moderate volume of pleural air lateral to the partially atelectatic right lung, although aeration of the left lung has moderately improved. Right lung is grossly clear. Small right pleural effusion noted. Pneumoperitoneum left upper abdominal quadrant, reflecting recent abdominal surgery. |
|
chest x-ray; 'No Finding'; 'Support Devices' | Dobbhoff tube in stomach. No other changes. |
|
chest x-ray; 'Cardiomegaly'; 'Support Devices' | In comparison with the earlier study of this date, the tip of the endotracheal tube remains at the upper clavicular level, approximately 6.3 cm above the carina. No change in the appearance of the heart and lungs. |
|
chest x-ray; 'Pleural Effusion'; 'Support Devices' | Endotracheal tube tip terminates approximately 5 cm from the carina. An enteric tube tip is within the stomach. The heart size is normal. Mediastinal and hilar contours are unremarkable. There is mild pulmonary vascular congestion with trace left pleural effusion. Patchy atelectasis is likely present in the lung bases. No pneumothorax is identified. No acute osseous abnormalities are present. Punctate radiopaque densities are seen projecting over the left axilla, not seen on the scout view from the previous head CTA. |
|
chest x-ray; 'Edema'; 'Pleural Effusion'; 'Support Devices' | As compared to the previous radiograph, a new left-sided chest tube was placed. There is a minimal improvement in the grade of expansion of the left lung but a substantial amount of left pleural fluid persists. The lung volumes have decreased, visually emphasizing the diameter of the vasculature. Nonetheless, mild to moderate pleural edema is present. |
|
chest x-ray; 'Pleural Effusion' | Heart size and mediastinum are stable. Vascular congestion is demonstrated, moderate. No definitive pneumonia is seen. Small amount of pleural effusion is present. |
|
chest x-ray; 'No Finding' | The cardiomediastinal and hilar contours are within normal limits. There is no definite evidence of a pneumothorax. Consolidation of the left upper lung corresponds to findings from prior chest CT, consistent with known left apical mass. There is bibasilar atelectasis. There are no pleural effusions. |
|
chest x-ray; 'Cardiomegaly'; 'Support Devices' | Stable cardiac enlargement. Increasing perihilar vasculature and indistinctness favoring developing mild perihilar edema. No pleural effusions. No pneumothorax. Endotracheal tube has its tip 4.5 cm above the carina. Nasogastric tube courses below the diaphragm with the tip not identified. |
|
chest x-ray; 'Edema'; 'Lung Opacity'; 'Pleural Effusion'; 'Pneumonia' | As compared to the previous radiograph, the right pleural effusion has minimally decreased in extent. However, the effusion still occupies about ___% of the right hemithorax. However, on the left, there is a newly appeared relatively severe parenchymal opacity, predominating in the left apex and left perihilar lung zones. The opacity shows multiple air bronchograms and might be caused by a combination of pulmonary edema and pneumonia. There is no left pleural effusion. The left aspects of the cardiac silhouette are unremarkable. At the time of observation and dictation, 9:46 a.m., on ___, the referring physician, ___. ___, was paged for notification. The findings were subsequently discussed over the telephone. |
|
chest x-ray; | One AP portable view of the chest. A left-sided pigtail catheter has been pulled back and the tip now ends in the mid-to-lower hemithorax. No pneumothorax is identified. There are low lung volumes. There is slightly more fluid in the minor fissure on the right. Previously seen left lower lobe contusion is unchanged. |
