Sarcoidosis Stages Your doctor may tell you that your disease is at a certain stage, between 0 and IV. These stages, sometimes called the Siltzbach classification system, are based on how your lungs look on a chestX-ray. You can have serious symptoms at any stage, but doctors generally e...
staging is a way to indicate the location of granulomas- the lungs, the lymph nodes, or both- and the nature of the disease. If anything, the stages are an easy way for doctors to categorize their sarcoidosis patients, and should
Read about sarcoidosis, a chronic lung disease. Learn causes, symptoms (cough, erythema nodosum, eye inflammation, fibrosis, granulomas), diagnosis, and treatment.
Chest radiography is abnormal in about 90% of cases and shows lymphadenopathy and/or pulmonary infiltrates (without or with fibrosis), defining sarcoidosis stages from I to IV. The etiology remains unknown but the prevailing hypothesis is that various unidentified, likely poorly degradable ...
Sarcoidosis is a multisystemic disorder of unknown cause characterized by the formation of immune granulomas in involved organs. It is an ubiquitous disease with incidence (varying according to age, sex, race and geographic origin) estimated at around 16

Sarcoidosis preferentially involves the upper lung zones: however, it can also have a more diffuse distribution in advanced stages of the disease. The most commonly observed finding on standard HRCT is multiple nodular opacities in a perilymphatic distribution (Fig. 18), which correlate with sites...

What are the 4 stages of sarcoidosis? Classification stage 0: normal chest radiograph. frequency at presentation: 5-15% stage I: hilar or mediastinal nodal enlargement only. frequency at presentation: 25-65% ... stage II: nodal enlargement and parenchymal disease. ... ...
