CT

  • Thoracic CT scan may be helpful in the diagnosis of adult T-cell leukemia.
  • Findings on CT scan suggestive of pulmonary infiltration by adult T-cell leukemia cells include:
  • Ground-glass attenuation
  • Centrilobular nodules
  • Thickening of the bronchovascular bundles
  • Consolidation in the peripheral lung parenchyma
