ObjectiveTo analyze high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) patterns of lung involvement and disease course in patients with hematological malignancies experiencing diffuse alveolar hemorrhage (DAH) after chemotherapy ±allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT).Materials and methodsSixteen patients experiencing DAH after chemotherapy±allo-SCT were enrolled. A total of 74 computed tomography (CT) scans obtained before, during, and after onset of DAH were evaluated retrospectively.ResultsCT features of DAH are each, by oneself, nonspecific. However, conjoint bilateral, diffuse, and dependent ground glass opacity±crazy paving, accompanied by airspace bronchograms, should suggest this complication. The HRCT course comprises a wide range of trends that are not predictive for patient's outcome, but progression of parenchymal consolidations at follow up was more often detrimental.
