Overview

Chest radiographs are usually clear but may show pulmonary edema or pneumonic consolidation.

Relapsing fever imaging findings

X-ray

Chest radiographs are usually clear but may show pulmonary edema or pneumonic consolidation. There are no echocardiography or ultrasound findings associated with relapsing fever. However, an ultrasound may be helpful in the diagnosis of hepatomegaly or splenomegaly associated with relapsing fever.

Echocardiography and Ultrasound

There are no echocardiography or ultrasound findings associated with relapsing fever. However, an ultrasound may be helpful in the diagnosis of hepatomegaly or splenomegaly associated with relapsing fever. An ECG may be helpful in the diagnosis of complications of relapsing fever. A prolonged corrected Q-T interval on electrocardiography may be present in persons with RF-induced myocarditis.

CT scan

There are no CT scan findings associated with relapsing fever. However, a CT scan may be helpful in the diagnosis of complications of relapsing fever, which include cerebral hemorrhage.

MRI

There are no MRI findings associated with relapsing fever. However, an MRI may be helpful in the diagnosis of complications of relapsing fever, which include CNS involvement.
