"Osseous structures grossly intact" on a lung X-ray indicates that the bones visible in the image, such as the ribs and vertebrae, appear normal and show no signs of fractures, lesions, or significant abnormalities. This finding suggests that there is no acute skeletal injury or major bone pathology in the examined area. It helps to rule out bone-related issues while focusing on the lung structures themselves for further evaluation.
What else can I help you with?
What two cavities does the parietal pleura cover?
The parietal pleura covers two cavities: the thoracic cavity and the pleural cavities that surround each lung. It lines the inner surface of the thoracic wall, diaphragm, and mediastinum, providing a protective layer. This membrane helps facilitate lung movement during respiration by reducing friction between the lungs and surrounding structures.
What do skin brain heart and lung cells look like?
You will need to chick on these links to see the differences between heart, skin. brain and lung tissues.
Which lung has the cardiac notch and lingula?
Only the left lung has these features.
If one lung is broken does the other still work alone?
Yes, if one lung is broken, the other lung can still function adequately on its own to provide oxygen to the body. The remaining healthy lung will work harder to compensate for the loss in lung function.
What is the purpose of thoracoscopy?
Thoracoscopy makes it possible for a physician to examine the lungs or other structures in the chest cavity, without making a large incision. It is an alternative to thoracotomy (opening the chest cavity with a large incision).
What is intact lung?
the one that isn't the one that is the intact lung.... you have a 50/50 chance so guess one and maybe u will get it right!
What is the difference between the hilum and root of the lung?
The hilum of the lung is the area where blood vessels, nerves, and bronchi enter and exit the lung. The root of the lung refers to all the structures that connect the lung to the heart and other parts of the body. In summary, the hilum is a specific part of the lung, while the root encompasses all the structures that support and connect the lung.
What are the sructures of the lung?
The larger structures are called lobes.
What is the difference between the root and hilum of the lung?
The root of the lung is where blood vessels, nerves, and bronchi enter and exit the lung, while the hilum is the depression on the lung's surface where these structures are located.
What is the anatomical significance of the lung hilum and its connection to the root structures within the respiratory system?
The lung hilum is an important structure located on the medial surface of the lung where blood vessels, nerves, and bronchi enter and exit. It serves as a connection point for these structures to enter and exit the lung. The root structures within the respiratory system, including the bronchi and blood vessels, are anchored at the lung hilum, allowing for proper functioning of the respiratory system.
What is the relationship between the root of the lung and the hilum?
The root of the lung is connected to the hilum, which is a region where blood vessels, nerves, and bronchi enter and exit the lung. The root of the lung serves as a pathway for these structures to enter and leave the lung.
The structures within the lung that allow exchange of gasses with the bloodstream are known as?
alveoli?
What are the names of the structures that branch off the trachea and go to the lungs?
Bronchi and bronchioleshttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lung
What does hemidiaphragm and sulci intact indicates?
"Hemidiaphragm intact" means there is no visible abnormality in one half of the diaphragm, which is important for proper breathing function. "Sulci intact" refers to the shallow grooves on the surface of the brain being normal, indicating no signs of structural damage or pathology.
What is the scientific name for lung tissue?
The scientific name for lung tissue is pulmonary tissue. It is made up of specialized cells and structures that help in the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide during respiration.
Name the two structures that leave permanent imprints in the lobes of the left lung of humans?
it depends which lung you are talking about. On the mediastinal suface right lung there is imprints from the superior vena cava and diaphragm and in the left is the arch of the aorta. Both have cardiac impression more notable on left lung.
What structures leave permanent imprints in the lobes of the left lung of humans?
I don't know the other structure but one is the Heart
