A practical approach to the pediatric chest radiograph Steps for reading 1.Detection 2.Differentiation
What are we looking for? Change in size and shape of normal anatomical structures. Soft tissue, bones, heart, aorta, trachea, main bronchi, thymus, hili, esophagus, pleura, diaphragms, pulmonary arteries, veins, bronchial walls, gastric air bubble, liver, spleen
What are we looking for? Abnormality(increased or decreased opacity) which should not be present in normal individual
Increased lung opacity • ground-glass opacity(haziness) • consolidation • nodule or mass • linear, reticular or band like shadow • calcification
Decreased lung opacity and cystic abnormalities • hyperlucency(air trapping or pneumothorax) • lung cyst or bulla • honeycomb • cavitary nodule or mass • cystic bronchiectasis
Features of Lung Diseasein High Resolution CT Ground-Glass Opacity Consolidation Pulmonary Nodule Bronchiolar Disease and Tree-in-Bud Air Trapping Septal Thickening Parenchimal Bands Honeycombing Mosaic Perfusion Architectural Distortion Air-Filled Cystic Lung Lesions Dependent Increased Attenuation Emphysema Halo Sign Signet Ring Sign Crazy Paving Pattern
The main role of HRCT is to differentiate fine pathological abnormality.
Change in size and shape of normal anatomical structures can rather be easier to be detected by the findings of chest radiograph rather than those of CT.
Therefore for adequate interpretation of pediatric chest radiographs, we should be aware of gross abnormal findings which might be overlooked by particular reasons.
However it is very important to know what kind of abnormality is not demonstrable on usual chest radiograph but well demonstrated on CT or HRCT.
Detection of abnormal findings Quiz 1 Any abnormality in the lung in a child with cough and fever ?
Pneumonia and/or atelectasis at the left S8 Positive silhouette sign of the left hemidiaphragm
Detection of Pneumonia using Silhouette sign 2yo Bilateral pneumonia: Lingula of the left upper lobe, right lower lobe
Detection of Pneumonia using Silhouette sign Positive SS along left cardiac border 2yo Bilateral pneumonia: Lingula of the left upper lobe, right lower lobe
Detection of Pneumonia using Silhouette sign Negative SS along right cardiac border 2yo Bilateral pneumonia: Lingula of the left upper lobe, right lower lobe
How to detect abnormal findings silhouette sign silhouette out (Positive silhouette sign) Pneumonia and/or atelectasis of the lingula of the left upper lobe
Subsegmental pneumonia of the S10of the left lower lobe Positive silhouette sign of the posterior portion of the left hemidiaphragm
Detection of abnormal findings Quiz 2 Any abnormality in the central shadow in a child with habitual vomiting?
Esophageal achalasia Esophageal achalasia
Mediastinal interfaces and lines anterior junction line posterior junction line azygoesophageal line aortic-pulmonic window aortic pulmonary stripe left paraspinal line right paratracheal stripe posterior tracheal band(lateral) tracheo-esophageal stripe(lateral) aortic nipple How to detect abnormal finding
azygoesophageal line left paraspinal line
Yoon HK, et al: Mediastinal interfaces and lines in children: radiographic-CT correlation. Pediatr Radiol(2001)31:406-412 Samsung Medical Center, Sungkyunkwan University School of Medicine, Seoul, Korea Two mediastinal lines, the anterior and posterior junction lines, are occasionally seen on normal plain radiographs. The descending aorta and SVC interfaces are commonly seen on normal chest radiographs; their absence may suggest mediastinal or pulmonary abnormalities. The azygoesophageal and left paraspinal interfaces are not commonly seen on normal chest radiographs.
mediastinal reflection Abnormal shadow hidden by the central shadow or the diaphragmatic domes right paratracheal stripe
Abnormality of the right paratracheal stripe tracheal bronchus atelectasis tracheal bronchus(pig bronchus)
Abnormality of the right paratracheal stripe Double aortic arch Tracheal displacement
cervicothoracic sign neuroblastoma
posterior mediastinal line neuroblastoma

Detection of abnormal findings Quiz 3 Any abnormality in the lung in a child with abdominal pain ?
Right basilar pneumonia detection of basilar pneumonia on an abdominal radiograph
Below the margin of the diaphragamatic domes How to detect abnormal finding
Lesions hidden by the diaphragmatic domes Appendicitis ?
Right basilar pneumonia diaphragm pneumonia Plain abdomen Ultrasonography
infrapulmonary effusion Decubitus view Ultrasonography
Detection of abnormal finding Quiz 4 Any nodule suggesting metasasis of Wilms tumor ?
How to detect abnormal finding Atelectasis of S8of the left lower lobe
Detection of abnormal findings Quiz 5 Any evidence of peanut aspiration ?
Peanut aspiration Air trapping of the left lung due to check valve mechanism Expiratory phase Inspiratory phase
