Lung infarction
In pulmonar embolism it is not common to see consolidation.
The consolidation is a result of lunginfarction and bleeding into the alveoli.
In this case a lung cyst has formed in the infarcted area.
Here we see an old chest film, which is normal.
The pulmonary embolus has caused a triangular density on the chest film (arrow).
On the CT we can see, that it is a segmental consolidation. #Clinical #Radiology #CXR #CTChest #LungInfarct #Infarct #PulmonaryEmbolism #RadiologyAssistant
