Features in images Diagnosis Differential Similar appearances to this image. There is fine nodular shadowing in both lungs with a mid and lower zone predominance.
Many nodules are of similar size.
The primary complex is not shown in these views, but on the original, there was slightly coarser shadowing at the right apex. In this image from a similar patient, the nodules are particularly well-defined and, according to George Simon , appear as if they could be pulled off the image with tweezers. The resemblence to millet seeds is typical of the pathology. The distribution reflects lung perfusion and the transport of the pathology by the blood. Nodular shadowing in the George Simon collection.
