Overview
High resolution chest CT scan may be helpful in the diagnosis of adult bronchiolitis. Findings on CT scan suggestive of adult bronchiolitis include mosaic or diffuse air trapping, bronchial wall thickening, linear opacities, centrilobular nodules, and bronchiectasis (dilated airways).
CT scan
- High resolution chest CT scan may be helpful in the diagnosis of adult bronchiolitis.
- The following result of high resolution CT is suggestive of adult bronchiolitis:[1][2][3][4][5]
- Mosaic or diffuse air trapping
- Bronchial wall thickening
- Linear opacities
- Centrilobular nodules
- Bronchiectasis (dilated airways)
- Specifically seen in:
- Bronchiolitis obliterans
- Following lung transplant
- Rheumatic disease
- Previous infection
- Toxic fume inhalation
- Specifically seen in:
