-The recovery of fat from pulmonary artery (PA) catheter wedged blood, [[sputum]] and [[urine]] is nonspecific.  One study found fat in 50% of sera from patients with long bone fractures who had no evidence of FES.  [[Bronchoscopy]] and [[bronchoalveolar lavage]] (BAL) seem to be more specific by demonstrating fat droplets in alveolar [[macrophages]].
