What are the typical x-ray signs of lobar pneumonia?

The typical manifestations of lobar pneumonia can be seen by taking x-rays of both lungs, which mainly reveal a diffuse distribution of large lung segments that present relatively high density shadows. With the gradual increase of inflammatory secretions in the alveoli, a distinct lung shadow is manifested in which bronchial inflation signs can be seen. If the inflammatory response is very intense, inflammatory fluid may appear in the lungs at this time, and the angle of the cribriform septum may become blunt. After standard anti-inflammatory treatment, the inflammation of lobar pneumonia will subside, and the upper lesions will gradually shrink, blur, and finally dissipate completely.
