Predominant Pattern & or Distribution

Perilymphatic nodules; mid- and upper lung distribution


Additional Findings

Multiple nodules, differing sizes. Nodules cluster/coalesce. Nodules along fissures and pleural surface. Nodularity along central bronchovascular bundles.


Sarcoidosis, berylliosis, silicosis, coal-workers pneumoconiosis (and lymphangitic spread of carcinoma, however in this case, this one would be unlikely because of the distribution and lack of septal thickening in the lower lungs)
