title: [Computerized tomography diagnosis of opportunistic lung mycoses].
abstract: In 11 patients with opportunistic pneumo-mycosis, computed tomography revealed a predominantly nodular infiltration pattern of the lungs, which revealed particular features that showed a dependence on the species of pathogen involved and the stage of the disease. Computed tomography of the chest proved to be superior to conventional chest films in the clarification of unclear fungal pneumonia in patients on immunosuppressive treatment.
