Thank you sir Graphical representation is very helpful. I am a radiology resident and every time I try to read about the radiological feature of a disease , the unfamiliar terms like reticular ,nodular and something like that suddenly show up and I feel helpless even making sense of these terms. Hope you do more videos.
This showed up on my CT scan. Freaked me out. I admit I am not totally educated on this yet. A Pulmonary doc on-call told me he doesn't believe it's cancer. (But well maybe beginning of it???) Idk. I WAS on the floor sleeping for almost two weeks straight for up to 10 hours a day on average due to a mental breakdown.... so I wonder if it could be from total lack of movement and more shallow breathing as well as nervous breathing from debilitating anxiety. (Also on Gabapentin the 2nd week)
No bronchoscopy? My cat scan came up with it yesterday, I'm seeing my doc Monday. My biggest hope is material/obstruction that can be removed so I hope they do the scopic procedure.
Thank you sir

Great video. Dr please upload a video on cystic pattern like you promised.
The most common compressional atelectasis I see is caused by severe obesity compromising the lower lobes.

How do you differentiate linear atelectasis from vessels especially at the bases they tend to look bit similar don't they?
On xray linear atelectasis tends to be thicker and less tapered. The vessels should not extent into the peripheral 1/3 of the lung
What is lingular atelectasis?
Ok boss
