Radiologic-pathologic correlation of AEP. a Posteroanterior (PA) radiograph shows bilateral ground-glass opacities and consolidation in the mid-left lung zone. A small left pleural effusion is present. b Axial CT shows peripheral lower lobe consolidations and ground-glass opacities, mainly on the left. c Transthoracic lung biopsy showing eosinophils (black arrow) infiltrating the interstitium and the alveolar spaces; edema (green arrow) and reactive pneumocytes are seen; no necrotizing vasculitis is observed (H&E, × 400)
