Overview

There are no CT scan findings associated with Autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome(ALPS). However, a CT scan may be helpful in the diagnosis of complications of ALPS, as lymphoma.

CT

There are no CT scan findings associated with ALPS. However, a CT scan may be helpful in the diagnosis of lymphoma in patients with ALPS.Findings in chest CT of ALPS patients are

(A and C) Axial and (B and D) coronal computed tomographic scans show ill-defined, diffuse ground-glass nodules (blue ovals),in a patient with ALPS which are common in fungal infection, in the lower lobes. [1]
