[Chronic eosinophilic pneumonia: imaging findings].

Chronic eosinophilic pneumonia (CEP) is a rare disease of unknown cause characterized by alveolar and interstitial eosinophilic infiltration. The tomographic pattern is characterized by consolidations and peripherally distributed ground glass opacities in both upper lobes. Other findings are opacities in bands parallel to the pleura, thickening of the interlobular septa, migratory opacities, and mediastinal lymph nodes. We presented a case of a woman with CEP and described the most relevant clinical and radiological characteristics.
