Radiological Patterns of Lung Involvement in Inflammatory Bowel Disease

Figure 9

A 67-year-old woman with CD. In both basal posterior segments of the lower lobes, an interlobular-intralobular interstitial thickening associated with ground glass opacities and some traction bronchiectasis and bronchiolectasis is appreciable. A subpleural sparing is associated. These findings are compatible with NSIP. Axial HRCT study (a) and sagittal reconstruction (b).
