Caption:
This posteroanterior (PA) chest x-ray was taken 4 mo. after the onset of anthrax in a 46-year-old male. The patient, who’d worked for 2 years as a card tender, in a goat hair processing mill, contracted anthrax, and after having been x-rayed, revealed bilateral pulmonary effusion, and a widened mediastinum, which are hallmarks of the Bacillus anthracis disease process.
