Overview
CT scan of the thorax may be helpful in the diagnosis of Goodpasture syndrome. Findings on CT scan suggestive of Goodpasture syndrome include parenchymal consolidation, ground glass appearance that may progress to reticular pattern and interlobular septal thickening in later stage of disease.
CT scan
CT scan of the thorax may be helpful in the diagnosis of Goodpasture syndrome. Findings on CT scan suggestive of Goodpasture syndrome include:[1][2]
- Parenchymal consolidation
- Ground glass appearance that may progress to reticular pattern
- Interlobular septal thickening in later stage of disease
