Answer is: A

A pattern of coexistent septal lines and ground-glass that is sharply demarcated from normal lung is known as "crazy-paving."

Differential diagnosis:
Alveolar proteinosis is most likely but lipoid pneumonia, bronchioloalveolar carcinoma, and pneumocystis pneumonia should also be considered.
What were the options, Akhil??
Plz post more mcqs. Thanks.
