Films are best exposed at maximal inspiration with quiet breathing. Films made in expiration or with the patient rotated may lead to an erroneous diagnosis of pneumonia. http://www.pediatriconcall.com/fordoctor/DiseasesandCondition/PEDIATRIC_RADIOLOGY/pulmonary_infect.asp 2001-03-07T00:00:00.0000000-07:00 pneumothorax Radiology Giant pneumatocele Radiology
