Supplementary examination of radioactive pneumonia

Lung function

Radioactive pneumonia and pulmonary fibrosis are caused restrictive ventilation dysfunction, reduced lung compliance, with ventilation / blood flow and reduce the proportion of diffusing capacity reduced, leading to hypoxia. Sometimes chest film has not been unusual, and pulmonary function tests have shown changes.

X-ray

Most of the cessation of radiotherapy in January, a shadow of the lungs. Acute exposure in the lung field on a sheet of Mi-fuzzy shadow, which vaguely visible mesh shadow, like bronchial pneumonia or pulmonary edema. The scope and thoracic diseases surface radiation field line. A chronic pulmonary fibrosis, a corporation or of the cable-like massive shrinkage or limitations of atelectasis. Mediastinal pleura and a large number of pericardial adhesions, mediastinal shift to the side, the ipsilateral diaphragmatic rise and thorax collapse.
