13717902
AP single view of the chest has been obtained with patient in semi-upright position. Analysis is performed in direct comparison with the next preceding similar study of ___. Drooping head and chin are obscuring apical portion of the lungs and makes it impossible to accurately inspect the superior trachea. It is assumed that the ETT present on the previous examination has been removed. No pneumothorax can be identified. The pulmonary vasculature is unaltered and there is no evidence of any new acute parenchymal infiltrate. Similar as on the preceding examination, the high positioned diaphragms result in crowded appearance of the basal pulmonary vasculature with some linear densities on the left base most likely representing plate atelectasis. The diaphragmatic contours can be identified and thus there is no evidence of significant pleural effusion on either side. Smaller amounts of pleural effusion would require a lateral view to be seen in the posterior dependent pleural sinuses. Cardiac enlargement of moderate degree is again seen and within the heart shadow, one can identify a band of calcium representing mitral annulus calcifications.
