A collapse of the lung resulting in airlessness of all or part of the lung
Chronic dilation of the bronchi, can result in peribronchial thickening
Enlargement of the heart
Pus in the thoracic cavity causes an increase in tissue density
Pleural cavity fills with serous fluid
Inhalation of dust particles causing fibrotic (scarring) changes
The removal of a lung
Inflammation of the lung tissue causing fluid to fill alveolar spaces
Fluid fills interstitial lung tissues and alveoli
Mycobacteria infection causing inflammation
Fluid accumulation within the peritoneal cavity
Fibrotic changes in the liver causing enlargement
Chronic bone infection resulting in new bone growth at infected site
Dilatation of the fluid-filled cerebral ventricles causing enlargement of head
Spread of cancer to bone, can result in uncontrolled new bone growth
Tumor arising in the bone and cartilage

Defect in bone mineralization
Wasting away of body tissue with diminished cell proliferation
Generalized wasting away of body tissue
Overdistention of the lung tissues by air (enlarged aveoli)
Free air in the pleural cavity displacing normal lung tissue
Obstruction due to abnormal accumulation of air and fluid in bowel
