This is the name of the 'sign' seen below suggesting pulmonary embolus. 

Hamptons Hump

100

1. The CT below shows this type of pattern. 

2. Name 2 conditions where this pattern is seen. 

1. Mosaic or Geographical pattern 

2. Pulmonary Hypertension (due to perfusion abnormality), sarcoid (bronchial involvement), Hypersensitivity pneumonitis (due to air trapping)

100

This is the name of the tagged structure below. 

Right paratracheal line. 

Distortion suggests Middle mediastinal mass.

100

The image finding below is classically found in this chronic irreversible lung disease.  

Bronchiectasis. 


This is the signet ring sign- dilated bronchus next to accompanying pulmonary artery. 

100

The name of the common finding on the image below suggesting a later stage of pulmonary fibrosis. 

Honeycombing

200

The name of the "sign" that shows widening of the pulmonary arteries due to clot burden.

Fleischner Sign

200

According to the WHO, pulmonary hypertension caused by this mechanism is classified as Group 3.

Pulmonary hypertension secondary to chronic hypoxemia (COPD, sleep apnea, ILD)

200

This is the name of this structure. 


Aortic Nipple. 

Fun fact: It represents the left superior intercostal vein.

200

This is the name of this type of emphysema shown below. 

Paraseptal Emphysema. 


200

These pathologic conditions could produce the pathology shown in this image. Name 2

1. Silicosis

2. Sarcoidosis

3. TB

4. Histoplasmosis

300

Representing right heart strain, elevation of this has a linear correlation with increased mortality.

RV:LV ratio

The imaging below would make it easy for you to suggest the patient had which condition, chronically?

Pulmonary Hypertension

300

1. Name this line. 

2. Name a pathology that could distort this line. 

Azygoesophageal Recess. 

Posterior mediastinal pathologies:

1. esophageal mass

2. hiatal hernia

3. left atrial enlargement

4. adenopathy

300

This type of emphysema imaged below occurs with the deficiency an anti-trypsin enzyme. 

Panacinar or panlobular emphysema. 

300

Name this sign. 

Diagnosis?

1.Donut sign

2. Sarcoidosis

400

Name 2 findings that would suggest pulmonary embolism that can be seen on x-ray imaging. 

1. wedge shaped consolidation 

2. pleural effusion 

3. linear bands of subsegmental atelectasis


400

This smoking related disease will cause lung findings as shown below - upper lobe predominant cysts. (no, not emphysema)

Pulmonary Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis. 

This is later stage with the natural progression being nodules-->cavitary nodules-->irregular cysts

400

Name the sign portrayed on this frontal radiograph. Which part of the mediastinum is this mass NOT in?

The hilum overlay sign.

The mass must not be in the middle mediastinum. 

400

These are the three types of bronchiectasis..in order of increasing severity of disease. 

1. cylindrical 

2. varicose

3. cystic 

400

Seeing the sign below will prompt this diagnosis. 


COP

These are the THREE classic signs of significant right heart strain post pulmonary embolism. 

1. Elevated RV:LV ratio. 

2. Bowing of the intraventricular septum into the left ventricle

3. right ventricular dilation

500

The image below shows the classic look of this type of interstitial pneumonia when immune cell infiltration causes alveolar distortion. 

Lymphocytic interstitial pneumonia (LIP)


Associated with Sjogrens syndrome or HIV.

500

What compartment of the mediastinum is this mass, associated with myasthenia gravis, located in? Diagnosis?

Anterior Mediastinum. Thymoma. 

500

This relatively rare endobronchial tumor shown below can cause increased cortisol levels in your blood. 

Carcinoid. 


Fun facts:

Cacinoid is rare in adults,however, it is the most common bronchial tumor in children.

 Carcinoid almost always occurs distal to the carina.

CT shows an endoluminal bronchial mass with homogeneous arterial enhancement.
