FINAL REPORT
 CHEST ON ___
 
 HISTORY: Intubation, check ET tube placement.
 
 FINDINGS: Heart is mildly enlarged. There is a right-sided chest tube. The ET tube is 9 cm above the carina. There is right subcutaneous emphysema. NG tube tip is in the stomach. Subsequent film from two hours later again documented the right lung collapse and associated right pleural effusion. There is near-complete opacity of the right hemithorax likely due to layering effusion and right sided collapse. Compared to the prior study, the opacity in the right hemithorax has dramatically increased. There is mild pulmonary vascular redistribution with the left lateral lower lung being relatively spared. This film was submitted for interpretation on ___ at 4:45 p.m. Many subsequent chest x-rays and a chest CT have been performed in the interval. (unclear if prior dictation was lost).
