Reason for the Scan
You have ongoing chest pain, cough, and trouble breathing. This scan checks your lungs for damage, holes, blockages, or fluid.
Procedure Details
A chest CT (special x-ray) was done with thin slices before contrast. Images were rebuilt to show the lungs and airways clearly.
Important Findings
- Right upper lung has leftover holes (cavities) with widened air tubes (bronchiectasis) and scarring (fibrosis).
- A large air pocket (bulla) in the right lower lung measures 77×71 mm (about a golf ball).
- The right lung is smaller than normal (volume loss).
- Left upper lung shows mild widened air tubes (bronchiectasis).
- Windpipe and main breathing tubes look normal.
- Lung lining (pleura) looks normal with no fluid buildup.
- Middle chest area looks normal with no swollen glands (lymph nodes).
- Heart and big vessels look normal. No fluid around the heart.
Conclusion
You have lung damage with holes and scarring on the right, and a large air pocket. Some widened air tubes are on both sides, worse on the right.
Note of Concern
See a lung doctor soon to plan care and prevent flare-ups. Ask about inhalers, airway clearing, vaccines, and watching the large air pocket. Go to urgent care if pain suddenly worsens, you cough up blood, or breathing gets much harder.
