Age: 5-14 Years
Severity: Non-severe disease

Note the enlarged perihilar lymph node on the left. Although it is not easy to see the airway clearly they do not appear deviated or narrowed. There is an area of consolidation in the right middle lobe – this looks segmental (<1 lobe) which would make this non-severe disease.
