Overview
Chest X-ray may be helpful in the diagnosis of Langerhans cell histiocytosis. Findings on Chest X-ray suggestive of Langerhans cell histiocytosis include mild hyperinflation, coarse reticular interstitial markings, and peripheral ring shadows suggesting cysts formation.[1][2]
X Ray
- Findings on skull X-ray suggestive of Langerhans cell histiocytosis include a well-defined lytic lesions with sclerotic borders.[2]
