摘要：

Reversed halo sign (RHS) is a radiological feature described as a focal, rounded area of groundglass opacity surrounded by a ring of consolidation. In this report we describe two unique radiological cases demonstrating diffuse bilateral infiltrates with multiple RHSs in chest CT scans. Both patients were ultimately diagnosed as having tuberculosis (TB) and had been exposed to silica in the past. This report presents for the first time an association between silica exposure and RHS on CT scans among TB patients. It highlights the importance of having a high index of suspicion for TB in similar scenarios.
