Figure Computed tomography (CT) scans before and after treatment with granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor. (A, B) CT scan obtained before treatment, revealing diffuse bilateral septal thickening and ground-glass opacities in predominantly central areas, with some peripheral sparing. (C, D) CT scan 1 year after treatment initiation showing substantial decrease in widespread ground-glass opacities and septal thickening.
