Pulmonary radiographic abnormalities in shock. Roentgen-clinical-pathological correlation.
Pulmonary insufficiency is one of the most frequent causes of death in patients subjected to shock. The continuous radiographic series, clinical data and autopsy findings in 46 patients are described. The changes in the chest radiograph can be related to the histological findings and are clearly related to changes found by arterial blood analysis. Given the appropriate history, the radiographic picture can provide a clue for the diagnosis of a shock syndrome.
