Pulmonary and vascular manifestations of Behcet disease: imaging findings.

Abstract

This article focuses on the radiologic findings related to vascular system involvement and pulmonary, pleural, and mediastinal involvement of Behçet disease. CT is an important diagnostic imaging technique in the evaluation of patients with Behçet disease. CT is a valuable imaging technique in the diagnostic work-up of Behçet disease. CT effectively demonstrates vascular system involvement that is the main cause of mortality in these patients. CT is also effective in detecting mediastinal, pleural, and pulmonary parenchymal findings related to the disease.
