Overview

There are no diagnostic CT scan findings associated with uveitis. The presence of certain CT findings, in the presence of uveitis, may be suggestive of specific underlying causes such as inflammatory bowel disease^[1]^[2]^[3], sarcoidosis^[4]^[5], and Behcet's disease^[6]^[7].

CT

There are no diagnostic CT scan findings associated with uveitis. The presence of certain CT findings, in the presence of uveitis, may be suggestive of specific underlying causes.

Inflammatory Bowel Disease

Crohn's disease

The following CT findings are suggestive of Crohn's disease:^[1]^[2]

Fat halo sign
Comb sign
Transmural bowel wall enhancement
Fistulae
Skip lesions

Ulcerative colitis

The following CT findings are suggestive of ulcerative colitis:^[1]^[3]

Inflammatory pseudopolyps
Fat halo sign
Lead pipe sign
Rectal involvement
Mural stratification

Sarcoidosis

The following CT findings are suggestive of sarcoidosis:^[4]^[5]

Bilateral hilar lymphadenopathy
Galaxy sign in pulmonary sarcoidosis
Panda sign in sarcoid lesions affecting the head
Liver and spleen nodules corresponding with granulomas appearing as hypoattenuating masses

Behcet's disease

The following CT findings are suggestive of Behcet's disease:^[6]^[7]

Pulmonary vascular abnormalities (e.g., Ectasia, aneurysms, infarction, thromboembolism, venous varices, hemorrhage)
Features of aortitis
