01 / WHAT MATTERS ON THE EXAM

Cardiogenic pulmonary edema: cardiomegaly, vascular cephalization, Kerley B lines and perihilar 'bat-wing' opacities.

02 / WHAT TO LOOK FOR

Pulmonary edema: cardiomegaly, cephalization, Kerley B lines, bilateral perihilar (bat-wing) opacities

03 / WATCH OUT FOR

Hypertensive pulmonary edema may reflect rapid fluid redistribution; when blood pressure permits, prompt noninvasive ventilation and vasodilation can matter more immediately than waiting for diuresis.
