Figure 2. Flattened curved planar reformat images extracted from high-resolution CT chest images, and high-resolution CT axial chest images, at day 7 (A, D, G), day 66 (B, E, H), and day 151 (C, F, I) after diagnosis demonstrate progressive pulmonary fibrosis. Images A–C show sub-pleural ground-glass opacity and reticulation along a curved plane 1 mm below the posterior lung surface. Images D–F illustrate progressive traction bronchiectasis with an airway-optimized curved plane. Images G–I are standard axial CT images.
