Figure 1 The imaging characteristics of the infant at 65 d after birth.
A: Chest X-ray of the infant. Blurred lung texture, broad reduction in light transmission in both lungs, extensive lamellar dense shadow, and blurred mesh shadow were seen in both lungs, which suggested interstitial changes in both lungs; B: Computed tomography scan of the infant. Uneven transmission of both lungs with small capsule cavity locally, grind glass, dots, and patchy shadows scattered in both lungs with latticed changes locally. The interstitial abnormality in both lungs suggests bronchopulmonary dysplasia; C: Echocardiogram of the infant. Enlargement of the right ventricle and atrium was seen as well as thickening of the right ventricle anterior wall. The estimated pulmonary artery pressure was 47 mmHg according to the tricuspid regurgitation.
