clouding/silhouetting Explanation: Milchglaszeichnung = milchglasartige Trübung -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 26 mins (2005-06-02 22:04:07 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- http://healthsciences.columbia.edu/dept/ps/2007/pathophys2/p... ...Clouding of lungs from pulmonary oedema... http://myweb.lsbu.ac.uk/dirt/museum/gs-fourth.html Silhouette sign — Normally an interface is seen between areas of different density as between shadows of the heart and lung. Loss of air on the pulmonary side, usually because of consolidation, may cause obliteration or \"silhouetting\" of this normal interface. This sign is useful in localizing an abnormality or confirming the presence of abnormality. Occasionally the silhouette sign will be the only definite indication of consolidation next to the heart or diaphragm. http://www.usfca.edu/fac-staff/ritter/public_html/chestx.htm -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 35 mins (2005-06-02 22:13:45 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- milchglasartige Trübung http://www.infektionsnetz.at/InfektionenLungenentzuendung.ph... milky appearance http://cats.med.uvm.edu/cats_teachingmod/radiology/radiology... |
