The X-ray presentation of bronchopneumonia is mainly characterized by varying degrees of shadowing in both lungs. Bronchopneumonia differs from bronchiolitis in that it involves the terminal airways, alveoli, and interstitium. It can be caused by invasion of Streptococcus pneumoniae, Staphylococcus, viruses, Mycoplasma pneumoniae, and Legionella, and can be secondary to bronchitis, bronchiectasis, upper respiratory viral infections, and in critically ill patients who are bedridden. Bronchopneumonia is most common in children, who may present with fever, cough, and shortness of breath. In patients with bronchopneumonia, irregular patchy shadows can be seen in the distribution of the lung texture on X-ray. These shadows may appear as dots or small patches of varying sizes, and when the lesions are severe, they may merge to form large patches, or may even involve the entire segment or lobe of the lung. The edges of the shadows are usually shallow and blurred, with no signs of solid change. Once the diagnosis of bronchopneumonia is confirmed, it is recommended to actively treat the disease under the guidance of the doctor to improve ventilation and control the inflammation.
