A wedge shaped pulmonary density with its broad base against a peripheral pleural surface and with its tip pointing to the parahilar area is suggestive of pulmonary infarction. This pattern can be shown more often with computed tomography (CT) scanning than in plain chest X-ray films. In 16 patients with clinical evidence of pulmonary thromboembolism, often corroborated by diagnostic procedures other than CT, a variety of CT patterns of increased attenuation were noted. In seven (44%) of these cases, a distinct wedge shaped appearance was observed.
一个楔形肺密度影，其宽基底靠外周胸膜面，尖端指向肺门旁区域，提示肺梗死。这种表现通过计算机断层扫描（CT）比在胸部平片上更常显示。在16例有肺血栓栓塞临床证据的患者中（常通过CT以外的诊断方法证实），观察到多种CT上密度增加的表现。在其中7例（44%）中，观察到明显的楔形外观。
