High-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) showing lobular ground-glass opacities and in some areas interlobular septal thickening superimposed on ground-glass opacity (crazy paving pattern) compatible with alveolar bleeding.

A high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) showed lobular ground glass attenuation compatible with alveolar bleeding (Fig. 1), confirmed by a bronchoscopy showing hemorrhagic lavage fluid and hemosiderin-laden macrophages (Fig. 2).
High-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) a few months apart. The first is during a DAH-episode, showing lobular ground-glass opacities. The second HRCT-scan is post-Rituximab treatment, showing significant regression in ground-glass opacities.
