Overview
There are no x-ray findings associated with polymyositis and dermatomyositis. However, an x-ray may be helpful in the diagnosis of complications of polymyositis and dermatomyositis, which include interstitial lung disease and malignancy.

- X-ray may be helpful in the diagnosis of polymyositis, dermatomyositis, and their complications, which include:[1][2][3]
- Dystrophic calcification in the soft tissue
- Interstitial lung disease
- Malignancy
