Abstract

Sarcoidosis is an immune system disorder characterised by non-necrotising granulomas. Pulmonary involvement is the most common presentation of sarcoidosis, but it can manifest in any organ. Other commonly involved organ systems include the lymph nodes (especially the intrathoracic nodes); the skin; the eyes; the liver; the heart; and the nervous, musculoskeletal, renal, and endocrine systems. The typical and atypical imaging features of multisystemic involvement of sarcoidosis have been discussed with review of the gamut of radiological manifestations of thoracic, cardiac, CNS, abdominal and musculoskeletal sarcoidosis.
