Pulmonary sarcoidosis: a clinical update

May Khei Hu et al. J R Coll Physicians Edinb. 2020 Sep.

Abstract

Sarcoidosis remains difficult to diagnose, assess and treat. The last decade has brought significant diagnostic and therapeutic advances in the field of sarcoidosis including endobronchial ultrasound, F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography and biologics. In this article we use clinical vignettes to discuss commonly encountered cases to illustrate and explain the application of these, and other advances.

Keywords: biologics; endobronchial ultrasound; positron emission tomography; sarcoidosis.
