CTICasesBronchial thermoplasty-induced airway changes
Imaging findings
Chest CT shows peribronchial neo-vascularity presenting as a rosette-like pattern of tiny vessels surrounding the airways, along with bronchial wall thickening and mild bronchiectasis in an asthmatic patient.
Key takeaways
Bronchial thermoplasty is a bronchoscopic treatment for severe asthma that delivers thermal energy to airway walls. Long-term post-procedural imaging can show mild bronchiectasis and characteristic peribronchial hypervascularity.
