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, punched-out, lytic lesions with sclerotic borders.[2]
- Chest X-ray may be helpful in the diagnosis of Langerhans cell histiocytosis.[1]
- Findings on chest X-ray suggestive of Langerhans cell histiocytosis include:
- Mild hyperinflation
- Coarse reticular interstitial markings
- Peripheral ring shadows suggesting cysts formation
- Findings on bone X-ray suggestive of Langerhans cell histiocytosis include:
- Well-defined lytic diaphyseal lesion
- Dense consolidated periosteal reaction
- No cortical breach or soft-tissue mass
