Rationale for change

per AMBOSS and Radiopedia - effusion = fluid itself, tamponade = resulting pathology (not a radiologic finding)

Pericardial effusion in exudative pericarditis
Chest x-ray (AP view)
A bilaterally enlarged cardiac silhouette (globular "water bottle-shaped") with complete loss of normal cardiac contour is visible (dashed line: normal cardiac silhouette; hatched overlay: enlarged silhouette). In addition, two crescent-shaped opacities (L > R) can be seen at both costophrenic angles (light green shaded area).
These findings indicate pericardial effusion in addition to pleural effusion.



Pericardial effusion due to pericarditis in systemic lupus erythematosus
Chest x-ray (PA)
Enlarged cardiac silhouette (globular/water bottle shape) due to pericardial effusion in pericarditis.
