Aspiration pneumonia chest x ray
Plain films
- AP portable chest images may demonstrate bilateral opacities in the middle or lower lung zones.
- On PA and lateral images, the opacities may be localized to the posterior segments of upper lobes or to the superior segments of lower lobes.
- Lung abscess
- Empyema
- Involvement of dependent pulmonary lobes i.e., upright position lower lobe, superior segment of lower lobes or posterior segment of upper lobes in recumbent position
