French term

bande d'atélectasie passive au contact

French to English Medical Medical (general) CT scan of the chest, abdomen and pelvis
Hi,

I am having problems with "au contact" in this instance.
Could it be "band of passive atelectasis caused by loss of contact"?

Thanks

Hi Liz,
These are bullet points. The sentence in French is "discrète majoration de l'épanchement pleural droit de faible abondance avec bande d'atélectasie passive au contact"
The bullet point before this mentions "syndrome bronchique diffus" and the bullet point after mentions "lame d'épanchement pleural gauche"

Les atélectasies peuvent aussi être passives (collapsus pulmonaire au contact d'un épanchement pleural ou d'une ascension de la coupole diaphragmatique par exemple) ou encore par enroulements (secondaire à un épaississement pleural).

Relaxation or passive atelectasis results when a pleural effusion or a pneumothorax eliminates contact between the parietal and visceral pleurae.



I think you should provide the full paragraph in French
