Various diffuse infiltrative lung diseases: high resolution computed tomography appearances.
High resolution CT (HRCT; 1-2 mm collimation scans reconstructed with a high spatial frequency algorithm) is an established technique for the evaluation of diffuse infiltrative lung diseases. For many of these diseases, the features shown on HRCT correlate well with the histopathological abnormalities. The purpose of this pictorial essay is to illustrate HRCT appearances in various diffuse infiltrative lung diseases.
