Popis: The authors studied the pattern of X-ray changes detectable in the lungs of 41 patients with LCH. The results of classical X-ray study were supplemented by the data of computed tomography, ultrasonography, and 99mTc and 67Ga citrate radioisotopic studies. The diagnostic values of these techniques were compared. X-ray syndromes of changes in the lung in LCH were found to be interstitial, interstitial and granulomatous, tumorous (focal). The authors emphasize the multisystematic character of a lesion, the phasic nature and progression of the disease into fibrosis.
