[Radiograph and observation of the development of Q-fever pneumonia (author's transl)].
The radiograph in Q-fever pneumonia and the course of Q-fever was reported with the help of 12 clinically examined cases. Q-fever pneumonia is not to be diffrentiated from viral pneumonia or mycoplasmal pneumonia. A chronic course with residual infiltrates which lasts as long as two or three months is, however, more frequent in Q-fever pneumonia. According to our observations, a correlation seems to exist between the severity of the clinical symptoms, the extent of the pulmonary infiltrate and the level of the titer of the complement fixation.
