Overview
A chest CT scan might be used in patients with aspiration pneumonia if a chest x-ray is not conclusive. CT findings may include lobar consolidation, ground-glass opacities, bronchiectasis, atelectasis, pleural effusion, and consolidation. A chest CT can also help to assess reasons for therapy failure and complications, such as lung abscess, and pleural effusions.
CT
- A chest CT could be useful when a chest x-ray has inconclusive signs of pneumonia but the clinical manifestation suggest pneumonia.[1][2][3][4][5][6]
- CT findings in pneumonia include:[7]
- Airspace consolidation
- Ground-glass opacities
- Pleural effusion
- Bronchiectasis
- atelectasis
- A chest CT can also help to assess reasons for therapy failure and complications, such as lung abscess, and pleural effusions.
