Sthanu subramanian @sthanu25.bsky.social · 11/12/2024The bulging fissure sign is less commonly seen today due to the prompt administration of antibiotics to patients with suspected pneumonia. To confirm a diagnosis, a bronchoscopy is an important tool because of the endobronchial nature of the pathophysiology. 100
