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.
