Images in various forms, including radiographs, ultrasounds, waveforms, and other several other graphic representations, are a key part of pulmonary and critical care medicine. The Assembly on Clinical Problems is pleased to provide brief, image-based cases with key clinical questions.
We welcome the submission of any brief, image-based case/question. Each submitted case will be assigned for review by a section editor, based primarily on the type of image. Cases can be submitted via email to quickhits@thoracic.org using this template.
