High-resolution computed tomography with nonspecific interstitial pneumonia pattern in a patient with connective tissue disease; bilateral reticulation and ground-glass are present. Although the abnormality shows peripheral predominance in about one-third of cases, the relative sparing of the immediate sub-pleural zone of lung seen in ∼20% of cases may sometimes be a helpful diagnostic finding.
