IMPRESSION:
In comparison with the study of ___, there again is enlargement of the
cardiac silhouette with asymmetric pulmonary edema. As previously, it would
be difficult to unequivocally exclude superimposed pneumonia, especially in
the absence of a lateral view.
Hazy opacifications bilaterally with poor definition of the hemi diaphragms
suggests layering pleural effusion with underlying compressive atelectasis.
No interval change. No evidence of pneumothorax.

characterize fracture prior to surgery.
TECHNIQUE: Axial MDCT images were acquired in the absence of intravenous
contrast and displayed in multiplanar reformats at 2.5-mm resolution.
FINDINGS:
There is an old proximal humerus fracture which has healed. Diffuse
osteopenia is noted. Ossification in the supraspinatus tendon is also noted.
Degenerative changes at the glenohumeral joint with probable chondrocalcinosis
(2:20) versus small intra-articular fragments. The shaft of the humerus is
unremarkable in appearance, except for generalized osteopenia.
Of note, there is a comminuted intra-articular fracture of the distal humerus
with an intercondylar component involving the medial epicondyle with an
additional fracture line through the trochlea(402B:54). The ulno-trochlear
articulation is relagrossly congruent, slightly widened, with slight posterior
displacement of the trochlea with respect to the shaft of the humerus (501:2).
The radiocapitellar articulation is abnormal with anterior/volar dislocation
of the radial head (501:1). There is a small bony chip in the radiocapitellar
joint. The possibility of a subtle corner fracture off the radial head cannot
be excluded(401B:49). Soft tissue swelling and induration in this region is
consistent with a hematoma.
There is an old healed rib fracture of the right (?) fifth rib (402B:217).
Visualized portions of the lungs are unremarkable. Focal fat seen with the
deltoid muscle may represent a small intramsuclar lipoma (3:10).
IMPRESSION:
1. Comminuted intra-articular fracture of the distal humerus with a
transverse intercondylar component displacing the medial epicondyle with an
additional fracture line through the trochlea as described. Multiple
additional small fragments of bone are identified.
2. Dislocation of the radiocapitaller joint, with nearby tiny bone fragment.
Doubt but cannot entirely exclude tiny chip fracture along radial articular
surface.
3. Glenohumeral degenerative changes with ossification of the supraspinatus
tendon.
4. Probable small lipoma in the deltoid muscle, not full evaluated.

PELVIS, SINGLE VIEW.
Assessment of bony detail is markedly limited by overlying soft tissues and
underpenetration. Pelvic girdle is congruent, without obvious SI joint or
pubic symphysis diastasis. The sacrum is markedly obscured. No displaced
fractures identified about the pelvis or proximal femurs, but a nondisplaced
fracture would be very difficult to identify on this film. If clinical
suspicion for a proximal femur or sacral fracture remains high, then further
assessment with CT or MRI would be recommended.

acute right groin pain.
COMPARISON: None available.
LMP: ___
PELVIC ULTRASOUND: Transabdominal and transvaginal examinations performed,
the latter to further evaluate the endometrium and adnexal structures. The
uterus is anteverted and retroflexed and measures 10.8 x 4.4 x 6.0 cm. The
endometrium is homogeneous in echogenicity measuring 8 mm. A C-section scar
is noted.
Within the right adnexa, there is a large simple cyst measuring 6.4 x 5.0 x
6.6 cm. This likely represents a paraovarian cyst. The adjacent ovary
appears slightly edematous and measures 2.6 x 3.2 x 3.3 cm. The left ovary
measures 2.6 x 2.2 x 3.1 cm. Small follicles are noted. There is normal
arterial and venous Doppler waveforms within both ovaries. There is trace
pelvic free fluid.
IMPRESSION:
1. Slightly edematous right ovary with normal arterial and venous Doppler
waveforms. Findings are indeterminate with ovarian torsion not excluded.
Gynecologic consultation with clinical correlation is recommended.
2. Large 6.6 cm right paraovarian cyst. Follow-up pelvic ultrasound in 3
months is recommended.

INDICATION: ___ with fall// please eval for fracture or bleed
TECHNIQUE: Contiguous axial images from skullbase to vertex were obtained
without intravenous contrast. Coronal and sagittal reformats were also
performed.
DOSE: Acquisition sequence:
1) Sequenced Acquisition 18.0 s, 18.2 cm; CTDIvol = 49.6 mGy (Head) DLP =
903.1 mGy-cm.
Total DLP (Head) = 903 mGy-cm.
COMPARISON: None.
FINDINGS:
There is no intra-axial or extra-axial hemorrhage, mass, midline shift, or
acute major vascular territorial infarct. Gray-white matter differentiation is
preserved. Ventricles and sulci are prominent compatible with global volume
loss. Scattered periventricular and subcortical white matter hypodensities
are nonspecific but likely sequela of chronic small vessel disease.
The left frontal sinus and left ethmoid air cells are entirely opacified.
There is soft tissue perhaps arising from the ethmoid air cells extending
laterally into the extraconal space abutting the superior margin of the medial
rectus muscle. This soft tissue measures approximately 1.2 cm cc by 0.7 cm
TRV. In addition, there is apparent demineralization of the ethmoid air
cells septa and soft tissue extending into the nasal cavity.
Aerosolized debris with fluid and mucosal thickening noted in the left
maxillary sinus. Remaining paranasal sinuses are clear. (601:22) with a
IMPRESSION:
No acute intracranial process.
Complete opacification of the left frontal sinus and ethmoid air cells. Given
demineralized left ethmoid septa and soft tissue extension into the left
orbit, underlying mass lesion with secondary obstruction would be of concern.
A mucocele is less likely given lack of expansion. Dedicated nonurgent MRI
suggested.

INDICATION: ___ with hypoxia, possible metastatic CA// please eval for PE
TECHNIQUE: Axial multidetector CT images were obtained through the thorax
after the uneventful administration of intravenous contrast. Reformatted
coronal, sagittal, thin slice axial images, and oblique maximal intensity
projection images were submitted to PACS and reviewed.
DOSE: Total DLP (Body) = 462 mGy-cm.
COMPARISON: None
FINDINGS:
HEART AND VASCULATURE: Pulmonary vasculature is well opacified to the
subsegmental and there is a filling defect within the segmental branch of the
left upper lobe (4:84). Apparent filling defect in a subsegmental branch of
the left lower lobe is noted though there is significant respiratory motion
which limits detailed evaluation. Given slight hypoenhancement of the
atelectatic lung at the left lung base medially this could indeed represent
additional filling defect with possible infarct. No additional filling
defects are identified.
Coronary artery and mitral annular calcifications are noted. Atherosclerotic
calcifications also noted at the aortic arch. The heart is mildly enlarged.
No pericardial effusion is seen.
AXILLA, HILA, AND MEDIASTINUM: No axillary, mediastinal, or hilar
lymphadenopathy is present. No mediastinal mass.
PLEURAL SPACES: Small left and trace right pleural effusions are noted.
LUNGS/AIRWAYS: Dependent areas of atelectasis are again noted. As detailed
above, there is slight hypoenhancement at the left lung base medially which
could represent an infarct. Respiratory motion does limit detail evaluation
for tiny pulmonary nodules. The airways are patent to the level of the
segmental bronchi bilaterally.
BASE OF NECK: Visualized portions of the base of the neck show no abnormality.
ABDOMEN: Included portion of the upper abdomen is notable for partially
visualized adenopathy and numerous hypoenhancing liver lesions. These
findings are concerning for metastatic disease.
BONES: No suspicious osseous abnormality is seen.? old bilateral anterior rib
fractures are noted. In addition there are fractures of the left posterior
eighth, ninth ribs near the costovertebral junction to be correlated
clinically regarding acuity.
IMPRESSION:
1. Left upper lobe segmental pulmonary embolism. Questionable left lower
lobe subsegmental pulmonary embolism which is likely real given slight
hypoenhancement of the lung supplied by this branch which could represent
component of infarct. No right heart strain.
2. Rib fractures at the costovertebral junctions of the left eighth and ninth
ribs posteriorly to be correlated clinically regarding acuity as these may be
recent in nature.
3. Evidence of metastatic disease in the partially visualized abdomen.

ANESTHESIA: None
MEDICATIONS: None
CONTRAST: 10 ml of Optiray contrast.
FLUOROSCOPY TIME AND DOSE: 3.9 min, 15 mGy
PROCEDURE: 1. Repositioning of right PICC.
2. Right upper extremity venogram.
PROCEDURE DETAILS: Using sterile technique, a Nitinol guidewire was introduced
into the superior vena cava (SVC) through the existing PICC line, which was
subsequently removed. A peel-away sheath was then placed over the guidewire.
A new single lumen PIC line measuring 43 cm in length was then placed through
the peel-away sheath, but was unable to be advanced beyond the level of the
brachial vein. The guidewire was removed and a venogram was performed
demonstrating a short angled communication from the smaller vein containing
the PIC to the brachial vein. The guidewire was angled slightly and
reintroduced, passing into brachial vein and into the IVC. The PIC was then
able to follow with its tip positioned in the distal SVC under fluoroscopic
guidance. Position of the catheter was confirmed by a fluoroscopic spot film
of the chest. The peel-away sheath and guidewire were then removed. The
catheter was secured to the skin, flushed, and a sterile dressing applied.
The patient tolerated the procedure well. There were no immediate
complications.
FINDINGS:
1. Existing right arm approach PICC with tip in the right upper extremity
replaced with a new single lumen PIC line with tip in the lower SVC.
2. Short angled communication from the smaller vein containing the PIC to the
brachial vein.
IMPRESSION:
Successful placement of a 43 cm right arm approach single lumen PowerPICC with
tip in the distal SVC. The line is ready to use.

Total DLP (Head) = 1,880 mGy-cm.
COMPARISON: CT head on ___
FINDINGS:
There is no evidence of acute large territory infarct,hemorrhage,edema,or mass
effect. There is prominence of the ventricles and sulci suggestive of
involutional changes. Subcortical and periventricular white matter
hypodensities are nonspecific, however likely represent sequela of chronic
small vessel ischemic disease. There are atherosclerotic calcifications in
the bilateral cavernous carotids.
There is no evidence of fracture. There is near complete opacification of the
left frontal sinus and left ethmoid air cells, similar to prior. There is
apparent demineralization of the ethmoid air cells and septa, and extension of
the left ethmoid there is slow opacification due to the extraconal space
similar to prior. Mucosal thickening in the left maxillary sinus is similar
to prior. There is likely in nasal polyps on the left. The visualized
portion of the remainder of the paranasal sinuses, mastoid air cells, and
middle ear cavities are clear. The visualized portion of the orbits are
unremarkable.
IMPRESSION:
1. No acute intracranial abnormality on noncontrast head CT. Specifically no
intracranial hemorrhage or large territory infarct.
2. Re-demonstration of complete opacification of the left frontal sinus and
ethmoid air cells with apparent demineralization of the left ethmoid septa and
extension into the left orbit, again concerning for underlying mass lesion.

FINDINGS:
LOWER CHEST: There are small bilateral pleural effusions with adjacent
compressive atelectasis. No evidence of a pericardial effusion.
ABDOMEN:
HEPATOBILIARY: There are innumerable hypoenhancing hepatic masses (greater
than 15). The largest in the right lobe of the liver measures up to 5.4 x 4.4
cm in VI (5:40). The largest in the left lobe of the liver measures 5.5 x 4.4
cm in segment II/III (05:29). No intrahepatic or extrahepatic biliary
dilatation. The gallbladder contains sludge and there is marked gallbladder
wall edema likely due to third spacing. There is no luminal distension or
pericholecystic fat stranding to suggest acute cholecystitis.
PANCREAS: The pancreas has normal attenuation throughout, without evidence of
focal lesions or pancreatic ductal dilatation. There is no peripancreatic
stranding.
SPLEEN: The spleen shows normal size and attenuation throughout, without
evidence of focal lesions.
ADRENALS: The right and left adrenal glands are normal in size and shape.
URINARY: The kidneys are of normal and symmetric size with normal nephrogram.
No hydronephrosis. Subcentimeter hypodensities bilaterally are too small to
characterize. Multiple peripelvic cysts are noted on the left. There is no
perinephric abnormality.
GASTROINTESTINAL: The stomach is unremarkable. Small bowel loops demonstrate
normal caliber, wall thickness, and enhancement throughout. The colon and
rectum are within normal limits. There is a small amount of fluid surround
the tip of the appendix (07:23). However, there is air within this segment of
the distal appendix which is normal in caliber throughout. Note is made of a
punctate appendicolith(07:24).
PELVIS: Evaluation of the pelvic structures is slightly limited by artifact
from the adjacent left hip arthroplasty. Urinary bladder is collapsed around
a Foley catheter. Trace free fluid in the pelvis.
REPRODUCTIVE ORGANS: Uterus is unremarkable in appearance.
LYMPH NODES: There are multiple enlarged upper abdominal lymph nodes. For
instance, there is a nodal conglomerate in the gastrohepatic ligament that
measures 2.6 x 2.4 cm (5:26). Multiple upper retroperitoneal lymph nodes
measuring up to 1.7 x 1.2 cm at the level of the left renal vein (05:31). A
few subcentimeter mesenteric lymph nodes in the right lower abdomen measure up
to 0.8 cm (05:55). No pelvic sidewall or inguinal adenopathy by size
criteria.
VASCULAR: There is no abdominal aortic aneurysm. Heavy atherosclerotic
disease is noted.
BONES: No suspicious lytic or sclerotic lesions are identified. Patient is
status post total left hip arthroplasty. Degenerative changes at the pubic
symphysis. Healed fractures of the left anterior sixth and seventh ribs
(5:17).
SOFT TISSUES: Small locules of air in the subcutaneous fat of the anterior
abdominal wall likely represent a sequela of medication injection. There is
mild body wall edema.
IMPRESSION:
1. No infectious source identified in the abdomen and pelvis.
2. Upper abdominal lymphadenopathy, the largest conglomerate measuring up to
2.6 x 2.4 cm in the gastrohepatic ligament, compatible with provided history
of lymphoma.
3. Multiple hypoenhancing hepatic masses, the largest measuring up to 5.5 x
4.4 cm, likely representing lymphomatous involvement.

TECHNIQUE: Multidetector CT images of the pelvis and proximal left lower
extremity were acquired without intravenous contrast. Non-contrast scan has
several limitations in detecting vascular and parenchymal organ abnormalities,
including tumor detection.
Oral contrast was not administered.
Coronal and sagittal reformations were performed and reviewed on PACS.
DOSE: Total DLP (Body) = 1,507 mGy-cm.
COMPARISON: CT abdomen pelvis dated ___ and radiographs of the left
hip dated ___.
FINDINGS:
PELVIS: Innumerable hypodense hepatic masses are better assessed on the recent
CT of the abdomen pelvis with contrast. Gallbladder wall edema is again
noted, similar to prior, and likely due to third spacing. Note is made of
vicarious excretion of contrast into the gallbladder. Assessment of
intrapelvic structures is slightly limited due to artifact from the left hip
arthroplasty. A Foley catheter is present, decompressing the bladder. Trace
free fluid is seen within the pelvis. Visualized loops of large and small
bowel are grossly unremarkable. The previously noted fluid surrounding the
tip of the appendix is less conspicuous on this study. There is no
retroperitoneal hematoma.
REPRODUCTIVE ORGANS: The uterus is not enlarged. No adnexal mass lesions are
identified.
LYMPH NODES: There is no pelvic or inguinal lymphadenopathy.
VASCULAR: Extensive atherosclerotic disease is noted.
BONES AND SOFT TISSUES: Patient is status post left total hip arthroplasty.
Re-demonstrated is the known oblique, mildly displaced periprosthetic fracture
along the midportion of the femoral stem. Assessment of surrounding soft
tissue structures is limited due to streak artifact from the prosthesis.

the segmental level without filling defect to indicate a pulmonary embolus.
The thoracic aorta is normal in caliber without evidence of dissection or
intramural hematoma. The heart is not enlarged. There is no pericardial
effusion. Soft and calcified atherosclerotic plaque is seen involving the
thoracic aorta. Coronary artery calcifications are present. The right and
left main pulmonary arteries are enlarged, suggesting pulmonary arterial
hypertension. No pericardial effusion is seen.

lymphadenopathy is present. No mediastinal mass.
PLEURAL SPACES: No pleural effusion or pneumothorax.
LUNGS/AIRWAYS: Airways are patent centrally. There is dependent atelectasis
bilaterally. Pleural effusions have resolved. Assessment for pulmonary
nodules is slightly limited due to respiratory motion artifact, however no
concerning pulmonary nodules are identified.
BASE OF NECK: Visualized portions of the base of the neck show no abnormality.

INDICATION: ___ year old woman with diffuse large B cell lymphoma and altered
mental status.// Evaluate for CNS spread of lymphoma. Also evaluate sinuses
for mass/pathology previously seen on imaging.
TECHNIQUE: Sagittal and axial T1 weighted imaging were performed. After
administration of 7 mL of Gadavist intravenous contrast, axial imaging was
performed with gradient echo, FLAIR, diffusion, and T1 technique. Sagittal
MPRAGE imaging was performed and re-formatted in axial and coronal
orientations.
COMPARISON: CT head ___.
FINDINGS:
T2/FLAIR hyperintense signal of the central pons with sparing of the periphery
and of the cortical spinal tracts is identified, demonstrating associated
diffusion-weighted hyperintense signal without evidence of enhancement. The
imaging findings are compatible with central pontine myelinolysis.
There are scattered punctate low signal on GRE in primarily bilateral temporal
lobe, the right occipital, and the right cerebellum (6; 8, 9, 10, 12)
suggestive of micro hemorrhages.
There is no evidence of midline shift or mass effect. The ventricles and
sulci are prominent in caliber and configuration, consistent with age related
atrophy.
Periventricular subcortical white matter FLAIR hyperintensities without
enhancement or abnormal diffusion are nonspecific but may suggest chronic
small vessel ischemic changes.
There is no abnormal enhancement after contrast administration. Dural venous
is appear patent. Major arterial vascular flow voids are preserved.
There is mild mucosal thickening of the right maxillary sinus and anterior
ethmoid air cells. The remaining paranasal sinuses, mastoid air cells, middle
ear cavities are clear. The orbits are unremarkable.
IMPRESSION:
1. The imaging findings are overall concerning for central pontine
myelinolysis. Differential considerations subacute infarct or other
demyelinating process is considered much less likely given the symmetric
bilateral appearance of the abnormality with classic sparing of the peripheral
pons and cortical spinal tracts.
2. Scattered foci of gradient echo susceptibility artifact, compatible with
prior micro hemorrhages in a distribution suggestive of underlying amyloid
angiopathy.
3. Prominent periventricular subcortical T2/FLAIR white matter
hyperintensities the subcortical and periventricular white matter are
nonspecific and nonenhancing, commonly seen in setting of chronic
microangiopathy in a patient of this age.
4. No evidence of abnormal enhancement to suggest intracranial metastatic
disease at this time.

involves the left periventricular white matter and corona radiata. Their
distribution suggests embolic etiology. There is extensive T2/FLAIR signal
hyperintensity within the subcortical and periventricular white matter the
pons, which is nonspecific though presumably on the basis of sequelae of
chronic small vessel ischemic disease in a patient of this age. There are
areas of focal cortical volume loss/encephalomalacia within the left superior
parietal low, left occipital low, and bilateral cerebellar hemispheres (larger
on right), consistent with chronic infarcts. Additionally, there are chronic
bilateral basal ganglia lacunar infarcts as well as prominent perivascular
spaces. There is also diffuse age-related involutional change in the brain
parenchyma with prominent ventricles and sulci.
There is gradient signal hypointensity within the bilateral basal ganglia and
right thalamus indicating he chronic microhemorrhages versus mineralization.

parietal lobe which also may represent chronic blood products, although motion
artifact limits evaluation of this area.
There is right sphenoid sinus opacification.
IMPRESSION:
1. Multiple small acute infarcts within the left frontal and left parietal
lobes, most of which are cortically based , suggesting embolic etiology.
2. Multiple chronic infarcts. Extensive supratentorial white matter and
pontine signal abnormalities, likely sequela of chronic small vessel ischemic
disease.
3. Chronic microhemorrhages (likely hypertensive) versus mineralization in
bilateral basal ganglia and right thalamus. Possible chronic blood products in
the area of the left superior parietal chronic infarct, versus artifact.

COMPARISON: Chest radiograph from ___ and from ___.
TECHNIQUE: MDCT axial images of the chest were obtained with intravenous
contrast. Coronal, sagittal and axial MIP reformations were prepared.
CT CHEST WITH INTRAVENOUS CONTRAST: The thyroid gland is homogeneous without
focal nodule. No supraclavicular or axillary adenopathy is identified. There
are bulky mediastinal lymph nodes; a representative precarinal node measures
up to 13 mm in short axis diameter. Subcarinal adenopathy measuring up to 16
mm (2:32) is noted. There are bulky bilateral hilar lymph nodes as well. The
thoracic aorta is non-aneurysmal and demonstrates no signs of acute aortic
syndrome. Central pulmonary arteries are patent. The heart size is normal,
and there is no pericardial effusion.
The tracheobronchial tree is patent to subsegmental levels without bronchial
wall thickening or bronchiectasis. There are multiple areas of consolidation
throughout both lungs, most severe in the left upper lobe, lingula, left lower
lobe, and right lower lobe. The right upper and middle lobes are relatively
less involved. The consolidation has mixed solid and ground-glass attenuation
and follows a peribronchovascular distribution. Areas of septal thickening
are also evident. There is no pleural effusion. Findings most likely reflect
multifocal pneumonia with reactive adenopathy, however, diffuse alveolar
hemorrhage is possible in the appropriate clinical setting. A focal 11 x 9 mm
nodule is identified arising from the medial aspect of the minor fissure
(2:36). There is no pleural effusion.
Limited views of the upper abdominal viscera appear within normal limits.

abdominal tenderness, and elevated lipase and amylase. Assess for
pancreatitis.
TECHNIQUE: Multi-detector helical scanning of the chest was obtained from
thoracic inlet to upper abdomen in supine position without administration of
IV contrast. Axial images were reviewed in conjunction with 5-mm coronal and
sagittal reformats and 1-mm axial thin helical reconstruction.
RADIATION DOSE: The total DLP is 444.50 mGy-cm.
COMPARISON: Exam is compared to chest CT of ___.
FINDINGS: The thyroid is not included in the scan range. Patient has been
intubated. The ET tube ends at 5.5 cm from carina bifurcation. There has
been interval increase of bilateral consolidations, more severe in the upper
lobes where only a few portions of the lungs are still ventilated, such as
some subsegmental areas of the anterior segment of the right upper lobe
(series 2, image 15). The right middle lobe is relatively spared by the
consolidation. Area of central mucus impaction is in the middle lobe(2:45)
and is a sign of bronchiolitis. There is also a new bibasilar non-hemorrhagic
small pleural effusion with minimal atelectasis in the posterobasal segment
of the right lower lobe (2:48).
There is no peripheral lymphadenopathy. Mediastinal nodes are still enlarged
but stable since ___ for example, right lower paratracheal node has
short axis of 13 mm; right upper paratracheal node has short axis of 9 mm
(series 2, images 19, 22). Great vessels have normal size. Heart size is
normal. Small pericardial effusion is physiologic. Low blood density is a
sign of anemia.
Even though this exam is not tailored for abdominal imaging, it shows small
amount of ascites surrounding the liver and partially the pancreas with
surrounding fat stranding which might be a sign of pancreatitis. Large
gallbladder stone measures 2.5 cm (2:75). Kidneys and adrenals are
unremarkable. There is diffuse soft tissue edema compatible with anasarca.
BONES: There are no bone lesions suspicious for malignancy or infection.
IMPRESSION:
1. Severe progression of bilateral lung parenchymal consolidations with
severe involvement of the upper lobes and apical segment of the lower lobes is
compatible with progression of diffuse alveolar hemorrhage and superimposed
pneumonia. Stable lung base involvement, characterized by diffuse
peribronchovascular ground glass opacity due to pneumonia.
2. Central lymphadenopathy is stable since ___ and is likely
reactive.
3. New bibasilar non-hemorrhagic pleural effusion layering posteriorly with
small compression atelectasis of the posterobasal segment of the right lower
lobe.
4. Patient has been intubated. The ET tube ends 5.5 cm from carina.
5. There is new ascites and anasarca with minimal peripancreatic fat
stranding, compatible mild pancreatitis.

COMPARISON: Chest radiograph 5:03 today.
FRONTAL CHEST RADIOGRAPH: The endotracheal tube is 4.9 cm above the carina.
Please note that the tube is directed towards the left lateral wall of the
trachea, a change from prior.
The right internal jugular catheter terminates in the upper SVC. A newly
placed enteric tube courses into the stomach and out of the field of view.
The extensive bilateral opacities from severe pneumonia are unchanged from
earlier today. Lucency seen around the aortic knob is consistent with
spared/aerated lung as shown on the prior CT, rather than free air. There is
no pleural effusion. Heart size is normal.

COMPARISON: ___ radiograph.
FINDINGS: Support and monitoring devices remain in standard position, and
cardiomediastinal contours are stable. Multifocal bilateral areas of
heterogeneous consolidation have worsened in the interval, suggestive of a
progressive multifocal pneumonia coexisting with diffuse alveolar hemorrhage.
A rounded lucency in the right upper lobe may reflect a region of spared lung
parenchyma, but attention to this region on short-term followup radiograph
would be helpful to exclude developing cavitation from necrotizing pneumonia.

COMPARISON: Radiograph ___.
FINDINGS: Interval extubation and removal of nasogastric tube.
Cardiomediastinal contours are stable. Multifocal areas of airspace
consolidation involving the right lung to a greater degree than the left have
increased in severity, and may be due to a combination of multifocal pneumonia
and diffuse alveolar hemorrhage. Coexisting interstitial opacities have also
slightly worsened with increasing peripheral septal lines bilaterally.

superior vena cava. There is overall slightly better aeration of the chest
but similar heterogeneous multifocal opacities with suspected pleural
effusions. Some improvement may be due to decrease in edema.
IMPRESSION:
Mild improvement in aeration, possibly due to decreased edema superimposed on
severe bilateral heterogeneous opacification which is otherwise unchanged.

INDICATION: History: ___ with atraumatic SAH// aneurysm
TECHNIQUE: Contiguous MDCT axial images were obtained through the brain
without contrast material. Subsequently, helically acquired rapid axial
imaging was performed from the aortic arch through the brain during the
infusion of intravenous contrast material. Three-dimensional angiographic
volume rendered, curved reformatted and segmented images were generated on a
dedicated workstation. This report is based on interpretation of all of these
images.
DOSE: Acquisition sequence:

Total DLP (Body) = 669 mGy-cm.
Total DLP (Head) = 903 mGy-cm.
COMPARISON: MR head and without contrast ___, MR brain without
contrast ___, CT CTA neck/head ___.
FINDINGS:
CT HEAD:
There is a slight interval increase in the diffuse bilateral subarachnoid
hemorrhage that fills the suprasellar cistern, bilateral insula, and anterior
inter-hemispheric fissures bilaterally. There are chronic lacunar infarcts
within the basal ganglia bilaterally. Mild periventricular and subcortical
white matter hypodensities are nonspecific, but most likely related to chronic
small vessel ischemia. There is no evidence of large territorial
infarction,edema,ormass. The ventricles and sulci are within expected limits
in size and configuration.
There is mild opacification of the ethmoid sinuses bilaterally. The remaining
visualized portion of the paranasal sinuses, mastoid air cells,and middle ear
cavities are clear. There are degenerative changes within temporomandibular
joint on the right. The visualized portion of the orbits are unremarkable.
CTA HEAD:
The vessels of the circle of ___ and their principal intracranial branches
appear unremarkable without stenosis, occlusion, or aneurysm formation. The
dural venous sinuses are patent.
CTA NECK:
The carotidandvertebral arteries and their major branches appear normal with
no evidence of stenosis or occlusion. There is no evidence of stenosis in the
bilateral internal carotid arteries by NASCET criteria.
OTHER:
There is peribronchovascular scarring and diffuse bilateral ground glass
opacities which could be seen in the setting of an atypical infectious
process. 8 mm opacification at the bifurcation of an ectatic left lower lobe
bronchus (series 3, image 83), may represent mucous plugging. The visualized
portion of the thyroid gland is within normal limits. There is no
lymphadenopathy by CT size criteria. No suspicious osseous lesions.
IMPRESSION:
1. Unremarkable CTA head without stenosis, occlusion, or aneurysm formation to
explain subarachnoid hemorrhage.
2. Unremarkable CTA neck with no evidence of stenosis or occlusion in the
carotid and vertebral arteries bilaterally.
3. Slight interval increase in diffuse bilateral subarachnoid hemorrhage that
fills the suprasellar cistern, bilateral insula, and anterior interhemispheric
fissures bilaterally.
4. Peribronchovascular scarring and diffuse bilateral ground-glass opacities
which could be seen in the setting of an atypical infectious process.
5. There is a 8 mm opacification at the bifurcation of an ectatic left lower
lobe bronchus, which may represent mucous plugging. Recommend CT chest
follow-up examination to document resolution or stability in 3 months.
