Overview

On high-resolution computerized tomography (HRCT) scan, eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis will show airspace consolidation, ground-glass opacities, centrilobular nodules, bronchial wall thickening and/or dilatation, pleural effusions, and hilar or mediastinal lymph node enlargement.

CT scan

High-resolution computerized tomography (HRCT) scan of patients with eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis will show the following findings:[1][2][3]

  • Airspace consolidations mostly bilateral and lobular distribution.
  • Ground-glass opacities, can be seen in a patchy or subpleural distribution, with inclination most commonly occurring in the lower zone portion of the lung.
  • Centrilobular nodules
  • Bronchial wall thickening and/or dilatation
  • Pleural effusions
  • Hilar or mediastinal lymph node enlargement
  • Interlobular septal thickening
  • Areas of atelectasis
