Pulmonary Hrct Findings (From Webb)

Front 1

What are the HRCT findings of fibrosis?

Back 1

honeycombing, traction bronchiectasis and bronchiolectasis, intralobular interstitial thickening, irregular interlobular septal thickening, irregular interfaces

Front 2

HRCT findings in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis

Back 2

- findings of fibrosis
- ground glass opacity
- peripheral and subpleural predominance of abnormalities
- lower lung zone and posterior predominance

Front 3

HRCT findings in rheumatoid arthritis

Back 3

- bronchiectasis without fibrosis
- findings of fibrosis
- honeycombing (less than IPF)
- ground-glass opacity
- peripheral, posterior, lower, subpleural predominance
- pleural thickening or effusion
- small centrilobular nodules (follicular bronchiolitis)
- large (rheumatoid nodules)
- findings of bronchiolitis obliterans

Front 4

HRCT findings in progressive systemic sclerosis (scleroderma)

Back 4

- ground-glass opacity or consolidation
- findings of fibrosis
- lower, posterior, peripheral, subpleural predominance
- pleural thickening or effusion
- small centrilobular nodules (follicular bronchiolitis)
- esophageal dilatation

Front 5

HRCT findings in systemic lupus erythematosus

Back 5

- findings of fibrosis
- honeycombing (less than IPF)
- ground-glass opacity
- lower, posterior, peripheral, subpleural predominance
- bronchiectasis
- pleural thickening or effusion

Front 6

HRCT findings in polymyositis/dermatomyositis

Back 6

- ground-glass opacity
- findings of fibrosis
- honeycombing (less than IPF)
- consolidation (secondary to BOOP)
- lower, posterior, peripheral, subpleural predominance

Front 7

HRCT findings in Sjogren's syndrome

Back 7

- ground-glass opacity
- findings of fibrosis
- honeycombing
- lower, posterior, peripheral, subpleural predominance

- cysts or small subpleural nodules (LIP)

Front 8

HRCT findings in drug-induced lung disease associated with chronic pneumonitis and fibrosis

Back 8

- findings of fibrosis
- ground-glass opacity; consolidation
- lower, posterior, peripheral, and subpleural predominance

Front 9

Early HRCT findings in radiation pneumonitis

Back 9

- patchy or dense consolidation
- ground-glass opacity
- abnormalities largely limited to radiation port

Front 10

Late HRCT findings in radiation pneumonitis

Back 10

- streaky opacities
- dense consolidation with volume loss
- traction bronchiectasis in abnormal regions
- abnormalities largely limited to radiation port

Front 11

Criteria for a clinical diagnosis of asbestosis

Back 11

- reliable history of exposure to asbestos
- appropriate time interval between exposure and detection
- chest radiographic evidence of small, irregular opacities with severity of 1/1 or greater
- restrictive lung impairment with FVC below normal
- diffusing capacity below normal
- bilateral late or paninspiratory cracles at the posterior lung base, not cleared by coughing

Front 12

HRCT findings in asbestosis

Back 12

- findings of fibrosis
- honeycombing in advanced disease
- subpleural dotlike opacities in early disease
- subpleural lines
- parietal pleural thickening or plaques
- parenchymal bands particularly in association with pleural thickening
- earliest abnormalities posterior and basal
- ground-glass opacity
