Aluminosis

– Detection of an almost forgotten disease with HRCT. HRCT-scan of severe aluminosis with subpleural bullae.

Aluminosis

– Detection of an almost forgotten disease with HRCT. HRCT-scans. In the whole lung area there are small, ill-defined, diffuse opacities, in the upper right-hand field subpleural curvilinear lines. Figure 3 upper field, figure 4 middle field, Figures 5 and 6 lower field (case 10, table 5 and 6) [18]

A case of

airway aluminosis with likely secondary pleuroparenchymal fibroelastosis. Chest X-ray showing bilateral pleural thickening in the upper and middle lung fields. The lung volume was reduced and reticulonodular shadows extended from the sub-pleura to deep inside the lungs, suggesting pulmonary fibrosis. The tracheal bifurcation was widened by traction of the upper lobes

A case of

airway aluminosis with likely secondary pleuroparenchymal fibroelastosis. High-resolution computed tomography showing severe bilateral pleural thickening with shrunken and distorted upper lobes (a, c). There was mediastinal emphysema (a). On the other hand, reticulonodular shadows and bronchiectasis were distributed deep inside the lower lung (b, c)
