Answer to Question 1

D
Typical radiographic findings in a large pleural effusion include blunting of the costophrenic angle, fluid level on the affected side, and mediastinal shift to the unaffected side.

Answer to Question 2

C
Expectorants can help to keep secretions thinner (less viscosity) for coughing out. Early childhood immunizations will prevent many pulmonary infections. A lung resection may be necessary to remove a severely damaged and infected lung segment or lobe. Lung transplants are rarely performed for any condition, including bronchiectasis.
