## TL;DR

The study highlights that air space opacities are the most common lung imaging findings in patients with EGPA.

## Contribution

Identifies air space opacities as the most frequent pulmonary imaging feature in EGPA.

## Key findings

- Air space opacities are the most frequent imaging finding in EGPA with pulmonary involvement.
- These opacities are often bilateral and mostly peripheral or randomly distributed.

## Abstract

Teaching point: Air space opacities, either consolidation or ground glass, are the most frequent imaging finding in EGPA patients with pulmonary involvement, often bilateral and mostly peripheral or random in distribution.
