Pulmonary Fibrosis
Honeycombing, reticular opacities, traction bronchiectasis
Bronchiectasis
Dilated and thickened airways, 'tram track' sign, 'signet ring' sign
Interstitial Lung Disease
Reticular opacities, ground glass opacities, honeycombing
Pleural Effusion
Blunting of the costophrenic angle, meniscus sign, dependent opacities
Primary Spontaneous Pneumothorax
Collapse of the lung with no underlying lung disease
Secondary Spontaneous Pneumothorax
Collapse of the lung due to underlying lung disease
Lung Cancer
Solitary pulmonary nodule or mass, mediastinal lymphadenopathy, atelectasis
Pulmonary Hypertension
Dilated pulmonary arteries, right ventricular enlargement, peripheral arterial pruning
Aortic Dissection
Widened mediastinum, displacement of aortic calcification, intimal flap
Sarcoidosis
Bilateral hilar lymphadenopathy, reticular opacities, parenchymal nodules
Mitral Valve Prolapse
Enlarged left atrium, mitral valve leaflet thickening and redundancy
Mitral Stenosis
Straightening of the left heart border, enlargement of the left atrium, pulmonary vascular congestion
Aortic Stenosis
Post-stenotic dilation of the ascending aorta, calcification of the aortic valve, left ventricular hypertrophy
Atrial Septal Defect (ASD)
Enlargement of the right atrium and ventricle, prominent pulmonary artery
Pleural Plaque
Well-circumscribed areas of increased density, often calcified, bilateral and symmetric
Pleural Mesothelioma
Diffuse pleural thickening, mass-like lesions, pleural effusions
COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease)
Hyperinflation, flattened diaphragm, increased retrosternal airspace
Tension Pneumothorax
Collapsed lung, mediastinal shift to the contralateral side, depressed diaphragm
Silicosis
Multiple small round nodular opacities, 'eggshell' calcification of hilar lymph nodes, progressive massive fibrosis
Cystic Fibrosis
Hyperinflation, mucus plugging, bronchiectasis
Cardiomyopathy
Cardiomegaly, pulmonary congestion, pleural effusions
Coarctation of the Aorta
Rib notching, 'figure 3' sign on aortography, dilated intercostal arteries
