CT Chest wo contrast CLINICAL INFORMATION: 72-year-old male with RCC staging, C64.9 Malignant neoplasm of unspecified kidney, except renal pelvis TECHNIQUE: Scout images were obtained for localization. Helical CT examination of the chest was performed without IV contrast administration. Axial, sagittal and Coronal reformatted images were reconstructed at 3.0 mm and reviewed. Scan field of view: 570 mm. Oral contrast Omnipaque: 16 oz. DLP: 2312 mGy cm. COMPARISON: Prior chest CT dated 10/5/2021. FINDINGS: Scouts: No additional findings. Lower neck and Mediastinum: Evaluation of the mediastinal structures is limited in such a noncontrast study. Partially visualized thyroid gland is unremarkable. No evidence of focal esophageal wall abnormalities. Lymph nodes: The previously indexed right hilar lymph node now measures up to 10 mm in short axis (series 3, image 95), previously measured the same. The previously described enlarged right inferior bronchial lymph nodes are difficult to evaluate in such a noncontrast study, but appear overall slightly increased in size when compared to prior, now measuring up to 20 mm (series 3, image 133), previously measured up to 17 mm (series 16, image 69 of the prior exam). No new pathologically enlarged supraclavicular, mediastinal or axillary lymph nodes. Heart and great arteries: The cardiac chambers appear normal in size. No pericardial effusion. The main pulmonary artery is normal in caliber. The ascending thoracic aorta is mildly dilated and measures up to 4 cm, unchanged from prior. Airways: Trachea and central bronchi are patent and clear. There is mild diffuse bronchial thickening, which could be seen with bronchitis. Lungs : Upper lobe predominant emphysematous changes and right middle lobe with adjacent anterior basal right lower lobe peripheral scarring with traction bronchiectasis are similar. Multiple noncalcified pulmonary nodules appears slightly larger when compared to prior, for example: * A right upper lobe nodule now measures up to 6 mm (series 3, image 47), previously measured up to 4 mm, * a nodule within the inferior lingula now measures 6 x 8 mm (series 3, image 131), previously measured 5 x 7 mm, * while a nodule within the superior lingula now measures 7 x 7 mm (series 3, image 98), previously measured up to 5 x 6 mm. Pleura: No pleural effusion or pneumothorax. Upper abdomen: The CT of the abdomen and pelvis will be reported separately. Bones and soft tissues: Unchanged multiple nodular densities within the subcutaneous upper pack of the patient, which likely represent multiple sebaceous cysts. Chest wall soft tissues are otherwise unremarkable. Severe degenerative bony changes are again noted, without evidence of aggressive or destructive intrathoracic osseous lesions. CONCLUSION: 1. Multiple scattered bilateral noncalcified pulmonary nodules are slightly larger when compared to prior, concerning for worsening pulmonary metastatic disease. Attention on follow up scans recommended. 2. Evaluation of the perihilar endobronchial lymph nodes is limited in such a noncontrast study, however, there appears to be an interval worsening of the previously noted enlarged right inferior bronchial lymph nodes, concerning for worsening metastatic nodal disease to the chest. Recommend attention on follow-up scans versus further evaluation with PET/CT, if clinically warranted. 3. Other incidental findings as described.

CT Chest with contrast CLINICAL INFORMATION: 65-year-old male with prostate cancer, Z85.46 Personal history of malignant neoplasm of prostate TECHNIQUE: Scout images were obtained for localization. Helical CT examination of the chest was then performed after IV injection of nonionic contrast. Axial, sagittal and Coronal reformatted images were reconstructed at 3.0 mm and reviewed. Patient weight: 241 lbs. IV contrast: Omnipaque 350, 150 ml, per protocol. Saline flush: 10 ml. IV contrast injection rate: 4 ml per sec. Scan delay: 70 sec Scan field of view: 500 mm. DLP: 1696 mGy cm. COMPARISON: No prior chest CT available for comparison. FINDINGS: Scouts: No additional findings. Lower neck and Mediastinum: Thyroid gland is unremarkable. No evidence of focal esophageal wall abnormalities. Lymph nodes: Calcified mediastinal and right hilar lymph nodes are noted, likely related to prior granulomatous lung disease.. Small noncalcified mediastinal, hilar and bilateral axillary lymph nodes are noted, which appear most likely reactive. Heart and great arteries: The left atrium is mildly to moderately dilated. Other cardiac chambers appear normal in size. No pericardial effusion. The main pulmonary artery is prominent and measures up to 3.1 cm, which could be seen with pulmonary arterial hypertension. The thoracic aorta is normal in caliber. There is moderate atherosclerotic calcification of the coronary arteries. Airways: Trachea and central bronchi are patent and clear. Lungs : Ill-defined right upper lobe peripheral subpleural multiple tiny groundglass pulmonary nodules are noted (around series 3, image 70). The lungs are otherwise clear without evidence of suspicious pulmonary nodules or masses. Pleura: No pleural effusion or pneumothorax. Upper abdomen: The CT of the abdomen and pelvis will be reported separately. Bones and soft tissues: The chest wall soft tissues are unremarkable. There is a heterogeneous bone density within the T6 vertebral body (series 3, image 115), with other multiple tiny hyperdense foci, for example within the T3 vertebral body (series 3, image 61). CONCLUSION: 1. Heterogeneous bony lesion within the T6 vertebral body, together with few hyperdense osseous lesions the most prominent one is noted within the T3 vertebral body are suspicious for metastatic disease. Recommend attention on follow-up scans. 2. Tiny peripheral subpleural groundglass nodules within the right upper lobe are nonspecific to etiology, but most likely infectious/inflammatory. Recommend attention on follow-up scans. 3. Other incidental findings as described.

Large colon and rectal fecal burden. Prominent fecaloma with subtle rectal wall thickening and perirectal stranding which may represent developing stercoral colitis or secondary to fecal impaction. 2. Mild circumferential urinary bladder wall thickening and perivesicular stranding. Correlation with urinalysis is recommended to exclude acute cystitis. 3. Left greater than right lung base airspace opacities which likely represent atelectasis/scarring, however superimposed infection/aspiration is not excluded. 4. Large hiatal hernia containing almost the entire stomach, likely in the organoaxial configuration. No convincing evidence of obstruction. 5. Gallbladder thickening probably due to lack distention, although correlation for cholecystitis is recommended. 6. Additional chronic and incidental findings as above. As the attending physician, I have personally reviewed the images, interpreted and/or supervised the study or procedure, and agree with the wording of the above report.

VESSELS: Mild calcific atherosclerosis of the abdominal aorta and its branch vessels. URINARY BLADDER: Normal. REPRODUCTIVE ORGANS: No abnormality. BODY WALL: Redemonstrated multiloculated fluid collections involving the left greater than right gluteal soft tissues and extending along the perineum anteriorly. The right-sided gluteal fluid collection contains a small focus of gas on axial image 277 series 201. The right-sided fluid collection has mildly decreased in size from prior and appears more complex with thick walls. There are phlegmonous changes in bilateral superficial groin soft tissues and along the base of the scrotum bilaterally. The largest well-defined fluid collection is seen in the left gluteal soft tissues and measures approximately 5.9 x 3.5 cm in greatest axial dimension (axial image 33). Inflammatory changes extend from this collection to abut the anus and a perianal fistula cannot be excluded. Few focal areas of cutaneous inflammatory stranding in the ventral pelvic wall without underlying fluid collection. MUSCULOSKELETAL: No significant abnormality. CONCLUSION: 1. Cutaneous thickening along with multiloculated fluid collections in the left greater than right gluteal soft tissues compatible with abscesses are again demonstrated. The left-sided gluteal collection is larger from prior and the right-sided gluteal collection is slightly smaller compared to prior. Inflammatory stranding extends along the perineum to the groin bilaterally. Findings remain compatible with hidradenitis suppurativa. The largest well-defined fluid collection is seen in the left gluteal soft tissues measuring up to 5.9 x 3.5 cm in greatest dimension. 2. The left-sided fluid collection extends in close proximity to the anus and a perianal fistula cannot be entirely excluded. If there is clinical concern for a perianal fistula, recommend outpatient nonemergent MR fistula protocol. As the attending physician, I have personally reviewed the images, interpreted and/or supervised the study or procedure, and agree with the wording of the above report.

Vascular system: Persistent calcifications of the bilateral carotid siphons and the left vertebral artery. Soft tissues: Progressive right parietal scalp hematoma, without underlying calvarial fracture. Orbits: Normal appearance. Calvarium and skull base: No acute fractures or suspicious osseous lesions identified. Progressive opacification of the bilateral mastoid air cells, extending into the bilateral middle ear cavities. Paranasal sinuses: Persistent opacification of the left greater than right maxillary sinuses, with bilateral sphenoid and scattered posterior ethmoid air cell mucosal thickening.
FINDINGS: The study is mildly degraded by metallic streak artifacts from dental amalgam. CT temporal bones: RIGHT: The external auditory canal is normal. The tympanic membrane is intact. The right middle ear cavity is clear. The inner ear ossicles are normal. There is no scutal or ossicular erosion. There is normal development of the cochlea, vestibule, and semicircular canals. The otic capsule is normally mineralized. The vestibular and cochlear aqueducts are not enlarged. There are no variations in vascular or facial nerve anatomy. The internal auditory canal is normal in size and configuration. The mastoid air cells are well-developed and aerated. LEFT: The external auditory canal is normal. The tympanic membrane is intact. The left middle ear cavity is clear. The inner ear ossicles are normal. There is no scutal or ossicular erosion. There is normal development of the cochlea, vestibule, and semicircular canals. The otic capsule is normally mineralized. The vestibular and cochlear aqueducts are not enlarged. There are no variations in vascular or facial nerve anatomy. The internal auditory canal is normal in size and configuration. Trace left mastoid effusion. The mastoid air cells are otherwise well-developed and aerated. CT of the head without contrast: No acute intracranial hemorrhage, vascular territorial infarct, cerebral edema, space-occupying mass, or mass effect. Gray-white matter differentiation is maintained. Age-appropriate cerebral volume. Multifocal periventricular and subcortical white matter hypoattenuation bilaterally, likely chronic microangiopathic changes. No acute osseous or orbital abnormality. Incidental hyperostosis frontalis interna. Trace mucosal thickening of the bilateral maxillary sinus floors, bilateral ethmoid sinuses, and anterior sphenoid sinuses. The paranasal sinuses are otherwise clear. CT venogram of the head: There is no evidence of venous sinus thrombosis. There is normal asymmetric size of the right transverse sinus relative to the left. The deep cerebral veins also appear patent. Included portions of the internal jugular veins appear patent. No abnormal postcontrast enhancement. CT angiogram of the head: RIGHT CAROTID: Mild carotid siphon calcific atherosclerosis. There is no evidence of flow-limiting stenosis, occlusion, or aneurysmal dilation. LEFT CAROTID: Mild carotid siphon calcific atherosclerosis. There is no evidence of flow-limiting stenosis, occlusion, or aneurysmal dilation. ANTERIOR, MIDDLE, AND POSTERIOR CEREBRAL ARTERIES: Unremarkable. VERTEBROBASILAR ARTERIES: Bilateral V4 segment calcific atherosclerosis with mild right and severe left luminal stenosis. There is no evidence of occlusion or aneurysmal dilation. CT angiogram of the neck: AORTIC ARCH and PROXIMAL GREAT VESSELS: Conventional three-vessel branching pattern. Mild aortic arch and proximal great vessel calcific atherosclerosis RIGHT CAROTID: Mild carotid bifurcation calcific atherosclerosis. There is no evidence of flow-limiting stenosis, occlusion, or aneurysmal dilation. LEFT CAROTID: Retropharyngeal in course. Mild distal common carotid and carotid bifurcation calcific atherosclerosis. There is no evidence of flow-limiting stenosis, occlusion, or aneurysmal dilation. RIGHT VERTEBRAL ARTERY: The right vertebral artery is dominant. Mild atherosclerotic calcifications at the subclavian artery origin. There is no evidence of flow-limiting stenosis, occlusion, or aneurysmal dilation. LEFT VERTEBRAL ARTERY: Mild atherosclerotic calcifications at the subclavian artery origin. There is no evidence of flow-limiting stenosis, occlusion, or aneurysmal dilation. SOFT TISSUES: Right thyroid lobe 7 mm hypoattenuating nodule. The imaged lung apices demonstrate multifocal groundglass opacities, similar to prior CT from April 2021. CERVICAL SPINE: Multilevel mild to moderate degenerative discogenic disease and facet arthropathy. Bony ankylosis of the right C4-C5 facet joint. Prominent disc-osteophyte complex at C3-C4 results in moderate spinal canal stenosis and deformation of the ventral cord. Disc osteophyte complex with uncovertebral hypertrophy at C6-C7 results in severe left neuroforaminal stenosis. --------------------
