Patients with a predominantly ground-glass opacity pattern and consolidation pattern seen on the initial CT scan had a worse prognosis and were susceptible to developing severe respiratory insufficiency. The predominant patterns seen on the initial HRCT scan may be helpful in predicting the outcomes of patients with sarcoidosis.
