All posts do not have to be videos...sometimes one or two images suffice. My plan is to try and put these up whenever there is something interesting with links to relevant posts, videos, cases of the day, etc. At present, this is only for Paid Subscribers.

41-years old was diagnosed to have Stage III sarcoidosis last year (peribronchovascular and fissures nodules - panels C and D). He was put on treatment and the scan done recently shows significant improvement (panels A and B).
It is the pattern of improvement that is interesting. While the extent of disease is more or less unchanged, it is the density of the lesions that has regressed. The dense discrete nodules have given way to subtle ground glass with reticular opacities resembling cotton candy or melted sugar or a faint tint.
