title: [Radiologic evaluation of bronchial asthma (author's transl)].
abstract: The physiopathologic and anatomic findings of bronchial asthma are shortly reviewed. A description follows of the radiologic patterns based on personal experience. Only seldom the radiologic investigations provide the possibility to reach the correct diagnosis of bronchial asthma. But they always complete the clinical evaluation and allow the demonstration of the numerous and frequent complications which influence the evolution and prognosis of the disease.
