title: [Radiological aspects of viral respiratory diseases in childhood].
abstract: The radiological diagnosis of viral pneumopathy must be backed up by laboratory examinations. There are several lung dysplasias that my mimic viral pneumopathy, especially in the newborn. Reference is also made to the radiological techniques applicable in the investigation of upper airway virosis in children. Note is taken of the fact that several forms typical of the first and second period of childhood are currently encountered in children undergoing immunodepressive therapy.
