13858856
The cardiac, mediastinal and hilar contours appear unchanged. The lung volumes remain low. There are persistent patchy opacities in the lower lungs, but somewhat better aerated and expanded, suggesting partial resolution of what is probably, at least predominantly, atelectasis. Background prominence of pulmonary vascularity with indistinct vessels suggests fluid overload. A curvilinear shadow continues to project over the right upper lung. Lung markings are clearly seen beyond it, but it is difficult to entirely exclude the possibility of a pneumothorax involving partial retraction of the right upper lobe, although doubted. There is no free air.
56985351
CHEST RADIOGRAPH HISTORY: Follow-up of abnormal radiograph. Patient with abdominal pain. COMPARISONS: Earlier in the same day. TECHNIQUE: Chest, portable AP upright.
Partial improvement in right basilar opacities. Persistent findings suggesting fluid overload. Persistent shadow projecting over the right upper thorax, which raises concern for the possibility of an unusual imaging appearance of pneumothorax; although doubted, chest CT are short-term followup radiograph should be considered to exclude the diagnosis, in addition to correlation with whether there has been any recent prior history of instrumentation.
13858856
The lung volumes are low. There are patchy new opacities in the lower lungs. Most often these could be attributed to atelectasis in the setting of low lung volumes, but not entirely specific. In addition, the pulmonary vasculature appears indistinct and prominent suggesting fluid overload. A curvilinear line projecting over the right upper hemithorax mimics pneumothorax, although the clear presence of lung markings beyond the edge of the shadow and the lack of medial delineation of the shadow make an artifact more likely than a real pneumothorax. There is no definite pleural effusion. The gastric bubble projects over the left upper quadrant, but there is no definite free air.
52348433
CHEST RADIOGRAPH HISTORY: Abdominal pain and hypotension. Question free air. COMPARISONS: ___. TECHNIQUE: Chest, AP upright portable.
