Retrocardiac and left lower lobe air-space opacity with left pleural effusion. Clinical correlation is recommended, as infectious etiologies cannot be excluded. The chronicity of these findings cannot be determined by imaging. Evaluation of the underlying parenchyma is limited, and an underlying parenchymal lesion or mass cannot be excluded. Recommend comparison with prior outside imaging and CT as clinically indicated.
