Per wiki, the main causes of collapsed lobes (atelectasis) is general anesthesia (up to 90% of people under anesthesia) and high oxygen, both hospital side effects that nobody informs about it seems, never mind adhesions. Actually the third most common cause, surfactant disfunction, is suggested to also be hospital caused, a result of mechanical ventilation The Role of Ventilation-induced Surfactant Dysfunction and Atelectasis in Causing Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome, 2011
Yeah this one may be better viewed on a bigger screen. In answer to the question, in consolidation, the fissures will be in their normal position. In collapse, they will move, indicating volume loss.
