bronchopneumonia on CXR

bronchopneumonia on CXR

Diffuse and patchy

Lobar pneumonia is usually caused by:

Streptococcus pneumonia

Phases of lobar pneumonia

congestion, red hepatization, gray hepatization, resolution

Lobar pneumonia on chest x-ray

bronchopneumonia refers to

focal/patchy areas of consolidated acute suppurative inflammation in one or more lobes. Usually, it involves lower lobes (basal) bilaterally.
