Chronic Eosinophilic Pneumonia: A Diagnostic Challenge Jane Turner, MD, Jing Gennie Wang, MD, Helen Neighbour, MB, PhD, MRCP The Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology: In Practice Volume 5, Issue 6, Pages 1737-1738 (November 2017) DOI: 10.1016/j.jaip.2017.05.002 Copyright © 2017 American Academy of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology Terms and Conditions

Figure 1 A-E, High-resolution computed tomography of the chest demonstrating bilateral patchy peripheral regions of consolidation predominantly involving the upper- and mid-lung zones, with D, relative sparing of lower-lung zones. F, Extensive bilateral mixed interstitial alveolar processes localized to the mid-upper lung zones are seen on x-ray. These radiographic findings are classic for chronic eosinophilic pneumonia. Other leading differential diagnoses should include cryptogenic organizing pneumonia, drug reactions, other eosinophilic lung disease, and sarcoidosis.
