These techniques include chest X-Ray, CT, and MRI along with pulmonary angiography, echocardiography, and nuclear medicine. Likewise, which modality should be used for which kind of disease or symptoms is also explained in succession.

Then representation of PA and lateral chest radiography is given. Lung hila is present in the middle of the lungs whose abnormal pattern is discussed through a radiograph in this lecture later on and is termed as hilar adenopathy. Some Diseases of Pleura such as pleural effusion are also explained through visual representation. Next is the explanation of pulmonary nodules and masses.

Another condition, known as atelectasis, is also described in which decreased expansion of alveoli is observed resulting in collapsed lung.
