Dear Friends,
Now that Game of Thrones is ending, a new series is planned: Game of Thorax, in which either you diagnose or you die.
As you can see in today’s radiograph, the Iron Throne has been replaced by the Chest Throne.
What would your diagnosis be?
Come back on Friday to see the answer.

Findings: PA chest radiograph show numerous metallic wires spread fan-like throughout the upper two thirds of both lungs.
This appearance is typical of endobronchial coils for lung volume reduction in patients with emphysema. They are used when other therapeutic alternatives are not feasible or as a bridge to lung transplantation.
I am showing this case because I have never seen one and wanted to share it with you. And to complain about the last season of Game of Thrones, of course!
Congratulations to all of you who made the diagnosis, led by MK, who was the first.
