Diagrams of Lungs

Pleura – layer 3                                                                                                                                   The two layers of pleura (orange) are held together by a thin layer of pleural fluid (yellow) by cohesive and adhesive forces. The visceral pleura is connected to the lung while the parietal pleura is attached to the chest wall. The pleura and fluid as a unit bind the chest wall to the lungs. The cohesion and adhesion that results keeps the outer chest cage of bone and muscle in intimate contact with the lungs, being pulled and pushed together in the harmonious dance of respiratory movement.

Chronic Eosinophilic Pneumonia Affects the Alveoli and Alveolar Septal Interstitium 
Chronic eosinophilia is characterised by alveolar filling with eosinophils and inflammatory exudates(a) and interalveolar interstitial thickening, (overlaid in red in b). The infiltrates are classically peripherally positioned, usually upper lobes, more commonly bilateral but can be unilateral, and manifest as consolidation and or ground glass opacities.  The CT shows bilateral peripheral consolidations in the upper lobes

Imaging Manifestations of  Fibrotic NSIP
Broncho vascular distribution associated with increased reticular changes, more prominent traction bronchiectasis, decreased lung volumes , and decreased lung volumes,  dominantly in the lower lobes but to some extent in the middle lobe and upper lobes.  Pulmonary hypertension becomes more common.

Position and Nature of NSIP
Broncho vascular and inter- alveolar interstitial fibrosis dominantly in the lower lobes but affecting the middle and upper lobes to lesser extent resulting in bronchiectasis and reticulations.  The overall increase in density results in ground glass changes
