There is an opacity in the right area on the lateral . however for a FB in that locations the degree of resp signs seems a bit dispropionnate.&nbsp;unless the puss you descr4ibe is seeding into different lung lobes and it isnt apparent yet on the rads&nbsp;</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/229148?ContentTypeID=1Tue, 16 Mar 2021 10:30:10 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:de9204a1-a3f4-4e2a-85d7-eb53c07de0acClaire Godfrey<p>No cytology unfortunately, but this is definitely my take home message from this case and will be doing in future. </p> <p>Thank you, I will get the radiographs checked.</p> <p>Claire</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/229134?ContentTypeID=1Mon, 15 Mar 2021 22:20:13 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:84f0240b-cd67-44cc-9150-f50d7bff0befAndrew Kent<p>Hi Claire,</p> <p>Do you have cytology on the stuff from the ET tube? If not it might be helpful or, as you say, to have cytology from the lower airways.</p> <p>With lungs I always suggest running the radiographs by an imaging specialist since its so easy to miss things - so submission to a tele radiology service might be a good starting point (unless Arlo has any way of inviting the imaging experts to this thread?).</p> <p>Andy</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
