Overall picture is consistent with worsening pulmonary edema, with likely an enlarging left pleural effusion. Endotracheal tube remains approximately 7.3 cm above the carina. Left subclavian line terminates at the distal brachiocephalic vein.
13642689
Extreme right lung apex excluded from the film. Allowing for this, no pneumothorax is detected. Pleural fluid is again seen extending along the left lung apex, probably similar in extent, allowing for differences in positioning. The tip of the ET tube is not well delineated, but it probably lies approximately 8.7 cm above the carina, immediately below the level of the clavicular heads. NG type tube present, extending beneath diaphragm, off film. Right IJ central line --___ Swan-Ganz catheter --___ tip again noted in the region of the RV outflow tract --___ correlation requested. Left subclavian PICC line tip over proximal/mid SVC. Surgical ___ noted over the left chest. Subcutaneous emphysema is noted adjacent to the lower left chest wall. A linear density seen near the subcutaneous emphysema at the left chest base is of uncertain etiology or significance. No left-sided chest tube is identified.

EXAMINATION: CHEST (PORTABLE AP) INDICATION: ___ year old man with new sided SubC air // eval for ptx TECHNIQUE: Single frontal view of the chest COMPARISON: Prior radiographs performed on the same day on ___ at 07:34
New moderate, asymmetric pulmonary edema and possible concurrent right lung pneumonia and/or pulmonary hemorrhage. ET tube 2-3 cm above standard position. No pneumothorax. Stable severe postoperative cardiomediastinal widening, presumably hematoma.
13642689
Compared to ___ at 20:59, the overall appearance is similar. Again seen is a rind of pleural fluid and/or thickening about the left lung, with collapse and/or consolidation at the left lung base. Possibility of slight interval increase in the degree of left-sided pleural fluid cannot be entirely excluded. The degree of opacity within the aerated portion of left lung appears slightly increased. The appearance of the right lung, with diffuse vascular plethora and prominent right hilum, is probably similar, allowing for technical differences. ET tube tip lies approximately 7.2 cm above the carina. NG tube tip overlies the gastric fundus. A left subclavian central line tip overlies the proximal SVC. A right IJ central right IJ Swan-Ganz catheter is similar in configuration, with tip suspected to be in the region of the right ventricular outflow tract. No pneumothorax is detected.

No definite change compared with ___. The possibility of slight increase in the left pleural effusion as well as increased opacities in the left mid zone cannot be excluded. Appearances in the right and left lung are most suggestive of CHF with interstitial and alveolar edema. The possibility of an underlying infectious infiltrate would be difficult to exclude.
13642689
This study was obtained as multiple partial views of the chest, which limits assessment. The ET tube tip approximately 7.6 cm above the carina, along the inferior edge of the clavicular heads on the lordotic view. Left subclavian central line tip overlies the confluence of the innominate vein and SVC. Right IJ Swan-Ganz catheter overlies the region of the RV outlet, similar to the prior film. The NG tube tip is not well visualized. Allowing for this, it probably lies just beyond the EG junction and appears retracted compared with the prior study. Assessment of pleural parenchymal findings is quite limited due to the technique. Allowing for this, again seen is pleural fluid and/or thickening at the left lung apex. The degree of opacification in the left upper and mid zones appears increased. The left costophrenic angle is newly visible, though the retrocardiac opacity persists. Clips are again noted overlying the left chest. Curvilinear lucency along the inferior edge of the right heart base is noted. No definite pneumothorax is detected . The right lung is overall similar to the prior study.
57786833
EXAMINATION: CHEST (PORTABLE AP) INDICATION: ___ year old man with s/p thoracoabd an. repair // eval pulm edema COMPARISON: Chest x-ray from ___ at 20:59
Lines and tubes as described. Probable interval retraction of the NG tube--___ tip now lies in the region of the GE junction, probably just beyond it. Limited assessment of the chest due to the absence of a single image that includes the entire chest. Allowing for this, there does appear to be increased opacification of the left upper and mid zones -- question asymmetric localized pulmonary edema, atelectasis, or early consolidation. A repeat frontal view to include the entire chest could help for further assessment. Newly visible lucency at the right heart base and in the left costophrenic angle. No definite pneumothorax, but attention to these areas on followup films is requested.
13642689
An ET tube projects approximately 5.8 cm above the carina. Left subclavian central line projects over the proximal/ mid SVC. A right IJ Swan-Ganz/PA catheter tip overlies the cardiac silhouette, possibly related to the RV outflow tract. An NG type tube is present, tip extending beneath diaphragm, off film. There are surgical clips overlying much of the left chest, with subcutaneous emphysema noted adjacent to the left chest wall. Portions of the diaphragms are excluded from the film and positioning is lordotic. Allowing for this, the cardiac silhouette is enlarged. Upper zone redistribution, a vascular plethora and blurring, and scattered airspace opacities are present. The differential diagnosis includes pulmonary vascular congestion and CHF, with an element of pulmonary edema. Multifocal infection or pulmonary hemorrhage could also give rise to this appearance. In addition, there is retrocardiac opacity, consistent with left lower lobe collapse and/or consolidation.The presence of pleural fluid at the base of the left lung would be difficult to exclude. Pleural fluid and/or thickening is seen at the left lung apex. No obvious pneumothorax is identified. Truncated appearance to the anterior lateral portion of the left first rib could represent a site of surgery. Incidental note is made of increased densities adjacent to the right coracoid process likely loose bodies related to the glenohumeral joint.
