Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a common systemic disease that manifests as inflammatory arthritis of multiple joints and produces a wide variety of intrathoracic lesions, including pleural diseases, diffuse interstitial pneumonia, rheumatoid nodules, and airway disease. Patients treated for RA can have associated lung disease that commonly manifests as diffuse interstitial pneumonia, drug-induced lung injury, and infection. The purpose of this pictorial review is to illustrate the radiographic and clinical features of lung complications of acute or subacute onset in patients treated for RA and to show the computed tomography features of these complications.
类风湿关节炎（RA）是一种常见的全身性疾病，表现为多关节炎症性关节炎，并产生多种胸内病变，包括胸膜疾病、弥漫性间质性肺炎、类风湿结节和气道疾病。接受 RA 治疗的患者可能会出现相关的肺部疾病，通常表现为弥漫性间质性肺炎、药物性肺损伤和感染。本影像学综述的目的是说明接受 RA 治疗的患者急性或亚急性发病的肺部并发症的放射学和临床表现，并展示这些并发症的 CT 特征。
