A chest X-ray (CXR) done at 24 hours looking for other sources of infection showed bibasilar atelectasis but no consolidation (see Figure 1).
Chest X-ray obtained after endotracheal intubation showing extensive bilateral airspace consolidation (identified by block arrows with color fill) with some sparing of the apices. Tip of the endotracheal tube at the level of the clavicular heads (arrow). Nasogastric tube (block arrow without color fill) and right subclavian line (arrowhead) in place.
