Progressive Dyspnea Associated with a Crazy‐Paving Appearance on a Chest Computed Tomography Scan
Canadian Respiratory Journal, Volume 13, Issue 5, Page 269-271, 2006., 2006 A ‘crazy‐paving’ appearance of the lungs on computed tomography scanning of the chest was first described nearly 20 years ago in patients with pulmonary alveolar proteinosis, and was thought to be characteristic of this condition. However, this pattern has subsequently been reported in a variety of pulmonary diseases and is now considered to be ...
