Episode notes
Almost a Chest Radiologist
- Frank Gaylard almost became a chest radiologist.
- He interviewed for a fellowship in Vancouver, but his wife got the position, and he didn't.
Honeycombing Discrepancy
- Radiological and histopathological honeycombing describe different anatomical entities.
- Radiologists see collapsed secondary pulmonary lobules, while pathologists see alveolar wall destruction and fibrosis.
UIP Pattern Merger
- Probable and typical UIP patterns often lead to the same diagnosis.
- Distinguishing between them can be challenging due to other lung pathologies and low interobserver agreement.
