Recommended Initial Workup A PA and lateral chest radiograph is the first radiological study recommended for evaluation of suspected pulmonary infection. [mycourses.med.harvard.edu]
The diagnosis of LV requires a full workup including a detailed history and a thorough physical examination. Due to its myriad forms, a high index of suspicion is the key to making the diagnosis. [oatext.com]

- Reticulonodular Pattern
If the Interstitium is predominantly involved, it may appear as a reticulonodular pattern. Air bronchograms would confirm an alveolar process. The lung volume should not be lost (may even be increased). [brooksidepress.org]
- Kerley B Lines
The classic Kerley lines are made by the thickening of the interlobular septa that carry the lymphatics (Kerley B lines are short thin lines, 1.5 to 2cm in length, seen in the periphery of the lower lung, extending to the pleura). [aic.cuhk.edu.hk]

Etiology
These infections can be severe and may have concomitant bacterial etiologies. In endemic areas, certain zoonotic infections should be considered when patients present with atypical pneumonia. [slideshare.net]
Etiology includes aspiration (given the large hiatus hernia) or TB. An underlying cavitating mass is considered less likely. [radiopaedia.org]
