Overview
X Ray
- In cystic fibrosis chest radiographs may be normal early in life.
- The chest radiographic features overlap with many other disorders, particularly those characterized by inflammatory or destructive changes of the airways.
- Hyperinflation due to mucus plugging of small bronchioles is the earlist radiographic sign of cystic fibrosis in infants and children.
- Atelectasis (especially in right upper lobe) is common in infancy.[1]
- Most patients with CF demonstrate some of the classic chest radiographic findings that reflect chronic bronchiectasis:[2]
- Hyperinflation
- Bronchial thickening and dilatation
- Peribronchial cuffing
- Mucoid impaction
- Cystic radiolucencies
- Increase in interstitial markings
- Scattered nodular densities
