Computerized tomography in pulmonary sarcoidosis.
Six patients with documented pulmonary sarcoidosis were selectively studied with the ACTA scanner. The CT scans were correlated with the standard chest radiographs of these patients. CT scans readily confirmed adenopathy, calcification, and pleural disease. Likewise, diffuse and isolated parenchymal disease was detected and in some cases unexpected lung involvement was noted.
