Overview
An x-ray may be helpful in the diagnosis of granulomatosis with polyangiitis. Findings on an x-ray suggestive of granulomatosis with polyangiitis include 4 patterns as multiple nodules with or without cavitation; Pulmonary hemorrhage as airspace opacities; reticulations and nodules and wedge-like consolidation in periphery.
Chest X Ray

- Multiple nodules with or without cavitation
- Pulmonary hemorrhage as airspace opacities
- Reticulations and nodules
- Wedge-like consolidation in periphery
- Other disease features can also be seen in granulomatosis with polyangiitis which are related to:[3]
