TGIF #chestrad case(s) of the week. Find the pneumonia on 4 different patients. Findings were much less conspicuous (or not at all seen) on the PA views (not shown). Answer on Monday. Have a great weekend!
Back from #STR which has motivated me to post cases again! Chest pain, r/o PE CTA. Is there a ddx for the filling defect in the lingular artery? Hint - Not showing lung windows but there is bronchiectasis and scarring in that region. Answer on Monday.
Food always on my mind, although I could do without the first case 🤢
1. Mosaic pattern w/ GGO, normal lung, & hyperlucency (also consolidation in this case) = head cheese sign from HP.
2. Opacity in infrahilar window = donut sign due to subcarinal LAD (see 10/3/21 post)

And the answer is Scimitar Syndrome. CT shows beautiful PAPVR draining directly into the IVC.
