🗑
Bronchiectasis   Radiodense lower lungs EF: none  
🗑
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease COPD   Depends on cause EF: changes only in severe cases  
🗑
Cystic Fibrosis   Increases radiodensities in specific lung regions EF: increase with severe conditions  
🗑
Dyspnea   (difficulty breathing) Depending on cause EF: dependent on cause  
🗑
Emphysema   Increased lung dimensions, barrel chest, flattened diaphragm, radiolucent lungs EF: Significantly decrease, dependent of severity  
🗑
Epiglottitis   Narrowing of upper airway at epiglottic region EF: soft tissue lateral technique (-)  
🗑

🗑
Respiratory distress syndrome RDS or Hyaline Membrane Disease HMD in children   Granular pattern of increased radiodensity throughout lungs, possible air-fluid levels EF: increase without obscuring pathology  
🗑
Primary TB   Small opaque spots throughout lungs; enlargement of hilar region in early stages EF: none  
🗑
Reactivation (secondary) TB   Regions of calcification with cavitations, frequently in area of upper lobes and apices with upward retraction of hila EF: none or slightly increased  
🗑

🗑
Silicosis (Occupational lung disease pneumoconiosis)   (distinctive pattern of scarring and dense nodules EF: None  
🗑
