This document provides an overview of chest x-ray (CXR) basics and techniques. It discusses the main types of radiologic imaging used for pulmonary examinations, including plain CXR, CT, ultrasound and others. The bulk of the document focuses on performing and interpreting plain CXRs, outlining the key steps of evaluating technical quality, anatomical structures, and differentiating common radiographic findings such as consolidation, cavitary lesions, and pulmonary nodules. It provides examples of normal and abnormal CXR presentations of various pulmonary diseases.

New technology called Electromagnetic Navigation Bronchoscopy® (ENB) that uses virtual bronchoscopy and real time 3-dimensional CT images that enable me to localize these peripheral lung nodules for diagnosis and treatment. This outpatient procedure is minimally invasive and therefore has a small risk of pneumothorax (2-3%) and its published diagnostic yield rates range from 67% - 86%
Reexpansion pulmonary edema is a serious complication after sudden expansion of collapsed lung.Re-expansion pulmonary edema is an uncommon complication following drainage of a pneumothorax , pleural effusion or removal of any space occupying lesion.
The incidence referred is less than 1%, andmortality can reach up to 20%.
The basics of Chest Radiology explained for the undergraduate students. The technical aspects including the various views, exposure, rotation and breath described.
The inside out approach of interpretation explained. The ABCDEFGH description includes Airway, Bones & soft tissue, Cardiac shadow, Diaphragm, Effusion (pleura), Fields (lungs), Gastric bubble and Hila & mediastinum.
The basic cardiac and lung pathologies discussed.
ATELECTASIS LUNG COLLAPSE PART-2 BY DR BASHIR ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR MEDICINE SO...Prof Dr Bashir Ahmed Dar
The term atelectasis is derived from the Greek words ateles and ektasis, which mean incomplete expansion.The incomplete expansion of lung may involve part of lung or entire lung.Most symptoms and signs are determined by the rapidity with which the collapse of lung occurs,the size of the lung area affected, and the presence or absence of complicating infection.
Rapid bronchial occlusion with a large area of lung collapse causes pain on the affected side, sudden onset of dyspnea, and cyanosis. Hypotension, tachycardia, fever, and shock may also occur.
Slowly developing atelectasis may be asymptomatic or may cause only minor symptoms. Middle lobe syndrome often is asymptomatic, although irritation in the right middle and right lower lobe bronchi may cause a severe, hacking, nonproductive cough.
Imaging plays an important role in diagnosis and formulating differential diagnosis in case of Solitary pulmonary nodule. It helps in differentiating and predicting benign and malignant nodules.

Local Advanced Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex Sys...Oleg Kshivets
Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).

SUGGESTED SCHEME FOR
VIEWING THE PA FILM:
CHEST X-RAY 10
23. • The anterior end of 6th rib or posterior ends of 10th rib are above the right
hemidiaphragm.
• If more ribs are visible the patient is hyperinflated.
• If fewer are visible, the film is expiratory.
DEGREE OF INSPIRATION
CHEST X-RAY 23
53. 1) CONSOLIDATION:
• Air bronchogram is an important sign, showing that
shadowing is intrapulmonary, it is a hallmark for
consolidation.
• It is not seen within pleural effusion
• Causes of consolidation :
* pneumonia.
* Pulmonary infarction.
CHEST X-RAY 53
68. It is a single discrete pulmonary opacity must be 3cm or less in
diameter that is surrounded by normal lung tissue & not
associated with adenopathy or atelectasis
* Tumor (bronchogenic carcinoma).
* Infection (TB, fungi, hydatid)
* Pulmonary infarction.
*Collagen (RA, Wagener's granulomatosis).
