4. Chest radiography Fluoroscopy Ultrasound Computerized Tomography Magnetic Resonance Imaging Radionuclide lung scan

5. Chest radiography Portable or in department Vertical or horizontal beam Low radiation dose No sedation No preparation Inexpensive

6. Fluoroscopy Dynamic observation Trachea Diaphragm Catheter, wire, tube placement

7. Ultrasound Department or bedside Most useful for evaluation of pleural fluid Simple versus complex fluid Consolidated lung Assess blood flow No radiation No sedation

8. Computerized Tomography (CT) High resolution, soft tissue contrast Multiplanar and 3D reconstructions IV contrast usually needed Sedation may be needed NPO guidelines May need pre authorization Radiation dose

9. Magnetic Resonance Imaging Soft tissue contrast Spine, spinal cord, masses, malformations Cardiovascular imaging Often requires sedation Sometimes requires contrast No ionizing radiation May need pre authorization

10. Radionuclide chest imaging Perfusion imaging Quantify blood flow to each lung Demonstrate areas of diminished perfusion Ventilation imaging Aerosol No portable studies

11. Lung infection - inhaled, hematogenous Alveolus fills with fluid and inflammatory cells Bacterial pneumonia typically unilateral Segmental Lobar

14. Abnormal accumulation of fluid in pleural space secondary to adjacent pulmonary infection

15. Simple, transudative effusion Fibrinopurulent exudate (empyema)

18. Ultrasound

23. Cavitating or necrotizing pneumonia Pneumatocele Lung abscess Bronchopleural fistula

24. Severe inflammation in lung parenchyma Thrombotic occlusion of alveolar capillaries Ischemia with eventual necrosis and cavitation

28. Congenital malformation CCAM Sequestration Bronchial obstruction Congenital Acquired (foreign body) Tumor
