Abstract

A posteroanterior chest radiograph demonstrating ill-defined lung opacities, notably in the left lung. Chest CT images (lung window) in the coronal (B) and axial (C) planes show predominantly peripheral ground glass-opacities involving all pulmonary lobes, which are more exuberant in the left lung, where small foci of consolidation are also visible.
