Overview

There are no diagnostic x ray findings associated with uveitis. Positive x ray findings may be found in underlying conditions such as sarcoidosis[1], tuberculosis[2], and seronegative spondyloarthropathies.[3][4]

X Ray

There are no diagnostic x ray findings associated with uveitis. Positive chest x ray findings may found in underlying sarcoidosis or tuberculosis; these include patchy consolidations of the upper or lower lobes in tuberculosis, and bilateral hilar lymphadenopathy or lytic bone lesions in sarcoidosis. Musculoskeletal findings may be seen on plain radiograph in seronegative spondyloarthropathies such as vertebral body squaring and sacroliitis in ankylosing spondylitis or bony proliferations in the joints of the extremities in any arthritidies.[1][2][3][4]
