Clinical indications of fever oftentimes will be pneumonia. And when we
0:04
think about pneumonia all commerce, so this could be bacterial, this could
0:08
be viral, this could be fungal, it could be inhalation. We have obviously
0:12
a lot of attention paid recently to COVID19 pneumonia; it could be pericarditis
0:18
or empyema. Things that are infective or infectious, and
0:22
irritating or inflammatory are going to cause and can cause fever.
0:26
So when you think about imaging to consider PA and lateral chest radiograph,
0:31
great screening tool, chest CT provides further characterization and may
0:36
actually identify subtle findings that you're just not able to see on radiograph.
0:41
So not uncommon that patients who have apparently clear lungs or lungs that
0:45
don't look like there's anything lobar or focal going on, on the chest
0:51
CT when there's appropriate clinical suspicion may reveal small subtle areas
0:55
of infection or inflammation that align very nicely and
1:01
are characterized by pneumonia. So keep that in mind as well.
1:05
So again, when you're looking at the imaging findings of pneumonia,
1:09
some of the patterns can help differentiate whether or not this is bacterial,
1:13
viral or fungal, and we'll talk more about that
1:17
in the rest of the session.
