Other Diagnostic Studies

A biopsy of the lung which shows organizing diffuse alveolar damage is required for diagnosis. Other diagnostic tests are useful excluding other similar condition, but history, x-ray, and biopsy are necessary. These other tests may include basic blood work, blood cultures, and bronchoalveolar lavage.
