Signs on Plain Radiographs
1. Pleura eff usion unilaterally or bilaterally can be seen in SLE patients in 26 % of cases.
2. Cardiomegaly may be seen due to pericardial eff usion (15 % of cases).
3 . I n shrinking lung syndrome , typically, chest radiographs
will show elevated hemidiaphragms, with blunting of the costophrenic angles and platelike atelectasis at the lower lobes bilaterally.
4 . Femoral head avascular necrosis is seen on radiographs
with diff erent signs depending on the stage: stage I
( normal X - rays ), stage II ( sclerotic or cystic lesions without
fracture ), stage III ( crescent sign indicative of subchondral collapse ), and stage IV ( further progression with osteoarthritis and acetabular changes ).
5 . Jaccoud ’ s arthropathy is seen on radiographs as ulnar
deviation, subluxation of the MCP, PIP and DIP joints, swan-neck deformities of fi ngers, localized osteoporosis, and absence of juxta-articular erosions (
. Fig. 6.15.3 ) .

Signs on PD Sonography
1. Power Doppler (PD) sonography can diff erentiate between primary or secondary Raynaud’s phenomenon in the fi ngers or toes. The patient is examined fi rst by PD with the probe to gain the baseline images. The region of interest is examined; then, the patient is asked to place their fi ngers into cold water (7 °C) for 3 min, and then the region of interest is reexamined again with PD
sonography. Primary Raynaud’s phenomenon will show moderate to mark hyperemia with red-to-orange (PD) signal in the normal temperature and then show reduced PD signal after the cold challenge. In contrast, secondary Raynaud’s phenomenon will almost always show reduced hyperemia with red-to-orange (PD) signal before and after cold challenge.

Signs on CT
1. Retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy with lymph nodes > 15 mm in diameter (64 % of cases).
2. The kidneys may be enlarged due to nephrotic syndrome or shrunken due to long-term disease. Spontaneous subcapsular hematomas may occur and seen as renal masses with high attenuation values on noncontrast-enhanced scan (38–64 HU). Predominant tubulointerstitial lupus nephritis shows bilateral, multiple, wedge-shaped areas or streaky zones of low enhancement that extend from the papilla to the renal cortex with or without slight cortical atrophy. This CT sign is nonspecifi c to SLE predominant tubulointerstitial lupus nephritis, but is a common sign observed in tubulointerstitial nephritis for any cause.
3. Hepatosplenomegaly may be seen, especially with lymphadenopathy (11 % of cases).
4. Diff use bladder wall thickening can be seen; however, exclusion of infectious cystitis is necessary.
5. Venous thrombosis may be seen, aff ecting the IVC or the femoral veins.
6 . Abscesses may be seen within the pancreas (diffi cult
to diff erentiate from pseudocyst), liver, small bowel, spleen, and kidneys. An abscess is seen as a cystic lesion with thick wall that enhances after contrast injection, with maybe intracystic air ( pathognomonic ).
7 . Infarctions may occur within the intestine or the
kidneys. Intestinal infarction shows bowel wall thickening with gas within the wall (pneumatosis intestinalis). In the kidneys, there is a wedge-shaped area that does not enhance after contrast injection. Diff erentiating focal pyelonephritis from renal infarction is diffi cult since both show the same radiological features; however, an enhancing rim around the low-density wedge may be seen in 46 % of renal infarctions, a feature that is not seen in pyelonephritis.
8. Pancreatitis may be seen due to steroid treatment, a common therapy for SLE.
9. Pulmonary manifestations include ground-glass alveolar opacities, pleural thickening, pleural eff usion, and/or reticular interstitial patterns. In shrinking lung syndrome, the chest shows pleural thickening involving the diaphragmatic pleura bilaterally with an otherwise normal lung parenchyma.
10. In acquired Brown’s syndrome, there is thickening of the superior oblique tendon of the aff ected eye compared to the normal side. Signs of infl ammation and contrast enhancement aff ecting the trochlea/ tendon complex may be seen in cases of infl ammation or synovitis.
Signs on MRI
1. Cortical hyperintensity lesions in the brain MRI may be seen on T2W and DW images due to thrombotic cerebral infarction. Multiples stroke episodes can be seen in SLE due to hypercoagulability especially when SLE is associated with positive anticardiolipin antibodies or due to embolic events related to Libman–Sacks endocarditis (
2 . Acute lupus encephalopathy is seen as reversible lacy
areas of hyperintensity in cortical gray matter and subcortical white matter, particularly in occipital, temporal, and parietal lobes on T2 and FLAIR images. Long-standing neuro-SLE cerebral disease can show poroencephalic cysts formation due to old brain infarctions, diff use brain atrophy, and/or intracranial hemorrhages due to SLE vasculitis aff ecting the circle of Willis (
3. Cerebral calcinosis ( Fahr ’ s disease ) has been reported to occur uncommonly as a severe, rare manifestation of neuropsychiatric SLE. Fahr’s disease is seen as extensive calcifi cation in the thalamus, putamen, caudate nucleus, white matter, and posterior gray matter.
4. In lupus arthritis, the MRI fi ndings in the hand, including tenosynovitis, were nearly indistinguishable from early RA except that RA patients had more bone marrow edema of the MCP joints and more abnormalities of the right fourth extensor tendon.

7.1 Pleural Diseases
 e pleura are composed of two layers, parietal and visceral layers, separated by a pleural space.  e parietal pleuron is supplied by systemic vessels and drains into the right atrium via the azygos, hemiazygos, and internal mammary veins.  e visceral pleuron is supplied by bronchial and pulmonary vessels and drains into the pulmonary veins.
 e pleural space normally contains interstitial  uid (1–5mL) that is cleared by the parietal pleural lymphatic ves­sels.  ere is no direct communication between the visceral pleura lymphatics and the pleural space.
 e pleura appear normally on radiographs only when the X-ray beam is tangentially set on the  lm. On radio­graphs, the pleura appear as  ssures and junctional lines. Fissures are made up of two layers of visceral pleura.  e nor­mal parietal pleuron is never visualized on posteroanterior (PA) radiographs.
Di erent pathological conditions a ecting the pleura can be diagnosed with con dence by PA chest radiographs alone.  is topic discusses the main pathological pleural conditions with their typical radiologic manifestations.
Pleural Eff usion
Pleural e usion is a condition characterized by abnormal  uid collection between the parietal and visceral pleura (excess pleural space  uid).  e pleural  uid can be water (edematous e usion), blood (hemothorax), pus (empyema), tumor cells (malignant pleural e usion), or lymph (chylothorax).
Pathologically, pleural e usion is divided into serous or
exudative according to the protein content a er lab analysis. Serous plural e usion contains little protein content (<2.5g/ dL) and usually arises due to systemic disease like cardiac failure, nephrotic syndrome, or liver failure. Exudative pleural e usion contains high protein count (>2.5g/dL) and usually arises due to in ammatory or infectious process like tuber­culosis, malignancy, and acute pancreatitis.
Disruption of the thoracic duct due to lymphoma or a tumor can cause lymphatic blockage and leakage into the pleural space causing chylothorax. Malignant e usion typi­cally results from metastasizing of the malignant cells into the pleural cavity via the parietal pleura lymphatics, and it is o en massive.
Bronchopleural  stula is a condition characterized by opening of a bronchus into the pleural space. It can develop occasionally following thoracic surgery, infection, medical intervention, or malignancy. Bronchopleural  stula is seen in 2–3 % of postpneumonectomy cases.
Signs on Chest Radiographs
5 Obliteration of the lateral costophrenic angle with
a meniscus like arc at the interface between the fluid and the chest wall in PA radiographs (Meniscus sign) (
5 Obliteration of the posterior costophrenic angle in
lateral radiographs ( sensitive to plural effusion collection due to gravity effect. Up to 50 mL of fluid is necessary to obliterate the posterior costophrenic angle, and

200 mL is necessary to obliterate the lateral costophrenic angle.
5 Subpulmonic pleural effusion ( SPE ) is a pleural
effusion that occurs below the lungs at the diaphragmatic surface. SPE does not obliterate the costophrenic angle, but it distorts the shape of the diaphragmatic dome, giving the impression of raised hemidiaphragm. You can suspect SPE in the left lung when the space between the gastric bubble and the lower lung margins increases up to 3 cm instead of usual few millimeters. Beside the raised hemidiaphragm, the lung appears to end early on PA radiographs (
5 Encysted ( loculated ) pleural effusion is a localized
7
encysted fluid at the fissures between lobes of the lung. It occurs usually at the right lung’s minor fissure, and it has biconvex contour mimicking a mass (
. Fig. 7.1.3 ). Very rarely, a benign form of
mesothelioma can grow along the major or minor fissures mimicking encysted pleural effusion, a condition known as pseudotumor .
5 Parapneumonic effusion is an effusion that
develops adjacent to pneumonias (empyema). Almost 30 % of patients with pneumonia develop pleural effusion and usually resolve with antibiotic therapy.
5 Mediastinal pleural effusion is a fluid collection
around the mediastinum. It is an unusual

condition, and when it occurs, it forms silhouette sign along the mediastinal borders causing mediastinal widening. Silhouette sign is a term used to describe any opacity within the chest radiograph that obliterates a mediastinal border.

5 Serous pleural effusion is visualized as a crescent
peripheral area with CT water density. Exudative effusion can be hyperdense.
5 Empyema characteristically demonstrates
thickened parietal/visceral pleura (e.g., > 2 mm) with effusion in between (split pleura sign) (
. Fig. 7.1.5 ). Enhancement of both pleura occurs
in 80–100 % cases after contrast injection. Multiple gas pockets within the empyema may be seen.
5 Bronchopleural fistula occurs when a bronchus
opens into the pleural space due to lung parenchymal destruction (e.g., pneumonia with empyema formation). It is seen as pleural effusion with air–fluid level on radiographs or HRCT (
