Chest x-rays can show abnormalities like heart failure or pneumonia through changes in lung patterns. • 8:02

Chest x-rays play a crucial role in diagnosing conditions like pneumonia and heart failure based on visual cues. • 8:26

Infections like pneumonia can be identified by white areas on the x-ray indicating lung inflammation. • 9:37

Air bronchograms can be seen in pneumonia cases, showing trachea and bronchus spreading into the lungs. • 10:02

The size of micoplasma is 0.1 to 0.5 micrometers, visible under an electron microscope. • 10:51

Micoplasma pneumonia is a small bacterium that can infect cells and respiratory epithelium. • 11:01

Micoplasma pneumonia is larger than a virus but smaller than normal bacteria, affecting both intracellular and extracellular spaces. • 11:16

Mycoplasma is 10 times smaller than a bacteria and attaches to ciliated cells in the respiratory epithelium. • 11:25

SARS-CoV-2 binds to mucus in airway epithelium and reprograms microvilli for replication. • 12:54

Mycoplasma can attach to cilia and microvilli, increasing chances of binding in the respiratory tract. • 13:36
