    Atelectasis

    Atelectasis is a condition in which the lung or a part of it collapses and does not expand properly during breathing. There are several forms of atelectasis, each with its own set of causes, and its treatment may require addressing the underlying cause.

    Acute Consolidation

    Although the differential diagnosis for acute focal and multifocal consolidation can be approximated with the traditional mantra of “blood, water, pus”, consider this more nuanced differential diagnosis that isn’t too much more tougher to remember.

  • Diffuse Consolidation
    • Module 4: Atelectasis/Consolidation,

    Diffuse Consolidation

    The differential diagnosis of symmetric diffuse lung consolidation is heavily weighted towards two diagnoses. Understand how this can improve your diagnostic accuracy, and learn when to look for other causes.

  • Chronic Consolidation
    • Module 4: Atelectasis/Consolidation,

    Chronic Consolidation

    The differential diagnosis for chronic focal or multi-focal consolidation diverges from the traditional mantra of “blood, water, pus”. Learn the diagnoses you need to keep in mind.
