ABSTRACT
Dyspnea is a common presenting symptom among patients with cardiopulmonary diseases. However, several neuromuscular and chest wall conditions are often overlooked and under-recognized causes of dyspnea. These disorders frequently adversely affect the structure and function of the ventilatory pump (diaphragm, accessory muscles of ventilation) and can precipitate respiratory failure despite normal lung parenchyma. Weakened musculature impairs clearance of airway secretions leading to aspiration and pneumonia, further compromising respiratory function. Radiologists should be aware of the pathophysiology and imaging manifestations of these conditions and might suggest them to be causes of dyspnea which otherwise may not have been considered by referring clinicians.
