Radiographic Pathology Chapter 3 Questions
with Verified Solutions
miliary tuberculosis ✔️✔️refers to is characteristic resemblance to millet seeds
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) ✔️✔️group of disorders that cause chronic air
way obstruction
chronic bronchitis and emphysema ✔️✔️most common forms of COPD
COPD ✔️✔️irreversible disease that result in limiting airflow
cigarette smoking ✔️✔️predominant risk factor associated with COPD
chronic obstructive bronchitis ✔️✔️chronic inflammation of the bronchi
persistent cough and expectoration( expulsion of mucus or phlegm from the throat)
✔️✔️primary symptoms of chronic bronchitis
emphysema ✔️✔️condition in which the lung's alveoli become distended, usually from loss of
elasticity or interference with expiration. It is characterized by increased air spaces distal to the
terminal bronchioles, with destruction of the alveolar walls
asthma ✔️✔️chronic inflammation of the bronchial system resulting in airway obstruction and
bronchial hyperresponsiveness
pneumoconioses ✔️✔️pulmonary fibrosis from inhalation of foreign inorganic dust, most
commonly from particular work environment
, selicosis ✔️✔️type of pneumoconioses from inhaling silica (quartz)
anthracosis (black lung disease) ✔️✔️result from inhalation of coal dust
asbestosis ✔️✔️result from inhalation of asbestos dust
histoplasmosis ✔️✔️systemic fungal infection caused by a domorphic fungus that thrives in a soil
specially soil that fueled by bird or bat excreta. Infection inters the body through respiratory
system
lung abscess ✔️✔️localized area of dead lung tissue surrounded by inflammatory debris
most common in the right lung because of the vertical orientation of the right main bronchus
pleuridy ✔️✔️inflammation of the pleura
pleural effusion ✔️✔️excess fluid collects in the pleural cavity
sinusitis ✔️✔️inflammation of the paranasal sinuses
ethmoid sinuses ✔️✔️most commonly effected sinuses because a proximate to a nose
bronchial carcinoid tumor ✔️✔️
bronchogenic carcinoma ✔️✔️most common fatal primary malignancy in US, accounts for 90% of
all lung tumors and has very low survivor rate 5 years
