Hepatic, pulmonary, and CNS involvement by histiocytosis X in an adult: MRI and CT appearance
Tóm tắt
Histiocytosis X (HX) is a disease of the lymphoreticular system characterized by histiocytic infiltration of one or more tissues. We present a case with extensive hepatic involvement in an adult visualized on ultrasound, computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The findings on MRI are strongly suggestive of the correct diagnosis.
