==Chest X Ray==
The [[chest x-ray]] is distinctive with features that appear similar to an extensive [[pneumonia]], with both lungs showing widespread white patches. The white patches may seem to migrate from one area of the lung to another as the disease persists or progresses. It shows normal lung volumes, with characteristic patchy unilateral or bilateral consolidation. Small nodular opacities occur in up to 50% of patients and large nodules in 15%.

Overview

Findings on a chest X-ray in cryptogenic organizing pneumonia are consolidation, which may be unilateral/ bilateral, migratory and affects all lung zone.Foci of granulation tissue can also be seen.

Chest X Ray

  • Findings on a chest X-ray :[1]
    • Consolidation
      • It could be unilateral or bilateral
      • It is often migratory
      • Affects all lung zone but usually peripheral, subpleural and peribronchovascular
    • Foci of granulation tissue can be seen[2]
