Title: Diffuse interstitial pneumonitis and fibrosis in sarcoidosis. Author: Aisner SC, Albin RJ. Journal: Chest; 1988 Jul; 94(1):193-5. PubMed ID: 3383632.

Due to the focal sampling of pulmonary tissue by transbronchial biopsy, a finding of interstitial pneumonitis does not exclude a diagnosis of sarcoidosis.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
