Thoracic Imaging Features of Legionnaire's Disease INFECTIOUS DISEASE CLINICS OF NORTH AMERICA Mittal, S., Singh, A. P., Gold, M., Leung, A. N., Haramati, L. B., Katz, D. S. 2017; 31 (1): 43-+

Abstract

Imaging examinations are often performed in patients with Legionnaires' disease. The literature to date has documented that the imaging findings in this disorder are relatively nonspecific, and it is therefore difficult to prospectively differentiate legionella pneumonia from other forms of pneumonia, and from other noninfectious thoracic processes. Through a review of clinical cases and the literature, our objective is for the reader to gain a better understanding of the spectrum of radiographic manifestations of Legionnaires' disease.
