There is extensive pleural opacity on the left encasing the lung and extending onto the mediastinal surface typical for malignant pleural disease. The opacity extends to the mid thorax level with a meniscus indicating at least some fluid however the relative amounts of solid tumour vs pleural fluid cannot be determined by plain film. Interstitial opacity is seen in the remaining aerated lung in the left upper zone. The right lung and pleural space are clear. The cardiomediastinal contours are obscured on the left.
