Teaching point: Dendriform pulmonary ossifications (DPO) are a rare form of diffuse pulmonary ossifications, in which these ossifications are organised in dendrite-like lines in the periphery of the bases of the lung, most commonly attributed to underlying interstitial lung disease (ILD), but can also be found in patients with chronic aspiration if no other CT findings of ILD are present.
