"Lung fields no focal lung consolidation" refers to a radiological finding in which the lungs appear clear and free from localized areas of opacity that would indicate consolidation, such as pneumonia or other lung infections. This term suggests that the lung tissue is functioning normally without any significant abnormalities or fluid accumulation. It is often noted in chest X-rays or CT scans, indicating healthy lung conditions. Overall, it is a positive finding in imaging studies of the chest.
focel infiltate
The phrase "no evidence of consolidation or infiltration seen in either lung field" indicates that medical imaging, such as a chest X-ray or CT scan, shows no signs of lung abnormalities like pneumonia or other infections. Consolidation refers to the filling of lung airspaces with fluid or solid material, while infiltration suggests the presence of abnormal substances in lung tissue. The absence of these findings typically suggests that the lungs appear clear and healthy.
hyperaerated
Lower lobe consolidation of the lung refers to a condition where the air spaces in the lower part of the lung fill up with fluid, pus, blood, or other substances. This can be caused by infections such as pneumonia or aspiration of foreign material. It can present with symptoms like cough, fever, chest pain, and difficulty breathing. Treatment typically involves antibiotics and supportive care to help clear the consolidation.
The term air bronchogram is used to describe a condition in which the bronchi stand out prominently due to increased contrast brought about by changes in the surrounding lung tissue. The change can be due to pneumonic consolidation, collapse of a part of the lung, or inflammatory edema in the lung tissue. It is not specific to any disease.
Lung fields will appear white
"Nil focal" on a chest X-ray indicates that there are no localized abnormalities or lesions detected in the lung fields or surrounding structures. Essentially, it suggests that the examination did not reveal any focal opacities, masses, or other concerning findings. This is generally a positive result, indicating a normal appearance of the chest.
Lung compliance = Lung expandability
The right lung has three lobes.
She was exposed to toxins from the fields she was forced to work in......... I think.
Increased fremitus over areas of consolidation occurs because the consolidated lung tissue becomes denser and conducts vibrations better than healthy lung tissue. This increases the transmission of vibrations from the bronchi to the chest wall, leading to increased tactile fremitus felt during palpation.
