CT Findings in Hydrocarbon Pneumonitis After Diesel Fuel Siphonage
American Journal of Roentgenology, 09/22/09
Yi MS et al. – The characteristic CT findings of hydrocarbon pneumonitis after diesel fuel siphonage are the presence of air–space consolidations with predominant right middle lobe involvement and areas of low attenuation within consolidation. Occasionally, bronchoalveolar lavage is needed to confirm the diagnosis of hydrocarbon pneumonitis by the presence of lipid–laden macrophages on the basis of a history of diesel fuel aspiration.
